The elastic potential of a spring can be calculated using the formula
E = (1/2) k x²
where are given that 
k = 120 N/m
the stretched length is
x = 0.02 m

The elastic potential is
E = (1/2) (120 N/m) (0.02 m)²
E = 0.024 N-m<span />

stiv31 [10]
The only vertical forces are weight and normal force, and they balance since the surface is horizontal. The horizontal forces are the applied force (uppercase F) in the direction the block slides and the frictional force (lowercase f) in the opposite direction.

Apply Newton's 2nd Law in the horizontal direction:
ΣF = ma
F - f = ma
where f = µmg

F - µmg = ma
F = m(a +µg)
F = (20 kg)(1.4 m/s² + 0.28(9.8 m/s²)

F = 83 N
