Final answer:

The work done in stretching the spring by 0.30 m is 11.25 Joules.

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the work done in stretching a spring, we can use the equation:

E = 1/2 × k × x^2

Where E is the work done, k is the spring constant, and x is the displacement of the spring.

Given that the spring constant is 250 N/m and the displacement is 0.30 m, we can plug in these values to calculate the work:

E = 1/2 × 250 N/m × (0.30 m)^2 = 11.25 J

Therefore, the work done in stretching the spring by 0.30 m is 11.25 Joules.

The unit for work is Joules (J).
