    Answer:

    240 N/m

    Explanation:

    Using the formula as follows:

    U = ½kx²

    Where;

    U = elastic potential energy (J)

    K = spring constant (N/m)

    x = stretched displacement (m)

    According to the information provided in this question,

    U = 35J

    x = 0.54m

    k = ?

    U = ½kx²

    35 = ½ × k × 0.54²

    35 = ½ × k × 0.2916

    35 = 0.2916k/2

    70 = 0.2916k

    k = 70 ÷ 0.2916

    k = 240.05

    To 2s.f, the spring constant (k) = 240 N/m.
