The elastic potential energy of a spring is given by
where k is the spring's constant and x is the displacement with respect to the relaxed position of the spring.
The work done by the spring is the negative of the potential energy difference between the final and initial condition of the spring:
In our problem, initially the spring is uncompressed, so
. Therefore, the work done by the spring when it is compressed until 
is
And this value is actually negative, because the box is responsible for the spring's compression, so the work is done by the box.

Answer:
(a) 42.28°
(b) 37.08°
Explanation:
From the principle of refraction of light, when light wave travels from one medium to another medium, we have:
= sinθ
/sinθ
In the given problem, we are given the refractive indices of light which are parallel and perpendicular to the axis of the optical lens as 1.4864 and 1.6584 respectively.
For critical angle θ = θ
, θ
= 90°;
(a)
= sinθ
/sin90°
0.6728 = sinθ
= sinθ
/sin90°
0.60299 = sinθ[tex]_{c}
θ[tex]_{c} = sin^(-1) 0.60299 = 37.08°
