COME

$k \cdot E_{i} + P \cdot E_{i} = k \cdot E_{f} + P \cdot E_{f}$

$\Rightarrow 0 + m g (h + \frac{h}{2}) = 0 + \frac{1}{2} k {(\frac{h}{2})}^{2}$ $\Rightarrow \frac{3 h}{2} m g = \frac{1}{2} k \frac{h^{2}}{4}$

$\Rightarrow 3 m g h = \frac{k}{4} h^{2} \Rightarrow 12 \frac{m g}{h} = k \Rightarrow k = \frac{12 \times 0.1 \times 10}{0.1}$

k = 120Nm^-1
