The force that the spring exerts is 1.31 N.

<h3>What is Spring force?</h3>

The displacement (compression or expansion) and force constant of the specific spring determine the spring's force.
It always takes action to get mass back to where it should be for equilibrium.
The force applied to the spring and the energy it has stored are shown in the formulas below:

$E_{stored} =\frac{1}{2} kx^{2}$

F = kx

Where,

x = displacement in the spring

k = spring force constant

<h3>Calculation of spring force:</h3>

Given,

k = 8.75 n/m

x = 0.150 m

Force exerted by the spring, F = kx

putting the values,

F = 8.75 x 0.150

= 1.3125 N

Hence, the force that the spring exerts is 1.31 N.
