Answer:
0.1 N
Explanation:
Considering that Hooke's law, F=xk where k is the spring constant in N/m, x is extension in meters, F is spring force in N.
Converting the given extension from cm to m, we divide by 100 hence 5/100=0.05 m
Substituting 0.05 m for x and 2 N/m for k then the spring force will be
F=2*0.05=0.1 N
