Answer:

m=1.53kg    

Explanation:

To solve this problem we use the Hooke's Law:

F=k*\Delta x     (1)

F is the Force needed to expand or compress the spring by a distance Δx.

The spring stretches 0.2cm per Newton, in other words:

1N=k*0.2cm ⇒ k=1N/0.2cm=5N/cm  

The force applied is due to the weight

F=mg

We replace in (1):

mg=k*\Delta x  

We solve the equation for m:

m=k*\Delta x/g=5*3/9.81=1.53kg
