<h2>
Spring constant is 14.72 N/m</h2>
Explanation:
We have for a spring
Force = Spring constant x Elongation
F = kx
Here force is weight of mass
F = W = mg = 0.54 x 9.81 = 5.3 N
Elongation, x = 36 cm = 0.36 m
Substituting
F = kx
5.3 = k x 0.36
k = 14.72 N/m
Spring constant is 14.72 N/m

The other answer choices are from the imperial system
Oh but they are !
Newton's 3rd law of motion says that for every action, the <em><u>re</u></em>action is
equal and opposite. That's as balanced as you can get.
The net force = sum of all forces acting on the body
If we take left side as -ve and right side as +ve,
then,
The net force here would be equal to,
10N + (- 3N)
= 7N.
Therefore, a net force of +7N ( + indicates it's moving towards right) is acting on the book of mass 2kg.
Here’s my work to your question. I used Newton’s Second Law and a kinematics equation to arrive at the answer.
