Answer:

24 N

Explanation:

Given,

Unstretched length or original length , x1 = 12cm

Stiffness constant, k = 8 N/cm

Load required to take spring to a length , x2 of 15cm

Recall the relation :

F = Ke

Where, e = extension

e = x2 - x1

e = (15 - 12) = 3

F = ke

F = 8 N/cm * 3cm

F = 24 N/cm*cm

F = 24 N

Hence, required load = 24 N
