    Answer:

    16J

    Explanation:

    From hookes law

    The work done in a spring is given as W =1/2ke^2

    Given that the force constant (k) is constant in the spring material

    We have that 2W = e^2

    Let W1 = 4J e1= 2cm e2 = 4cm

    Let W2 be the work required to stretch it an additional 4cm

    W1/ W2 = e1^2/e2^2

    W2 = W1* e2^2 / e1^2

    = 4* 4^2 /2^2

    =4× 16 / 4

    = 16J
