Q4. The 3-kg ball is connected to a spring with spring constant k = 100 N/m and unstretched length of 0.8 m. Initially the spring is compressed and has length 0.6 m. Then under the constant applied force F = 300 N (in the direction shown in the image) acting on the ball, the spring is stretched to a new length 1.3 m. Determine the work done by the spring to the ball during this process. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are randomized. Negative sign must be included if the work done is negative. Your answer must include 1 place after the decimal point, and proper Sl unit.

**Problem Statement:**

Q4. The 3-kg ball is connected to a spring with a spring constant \( k = 100 \, \text{N/m} \) and an unstretched length of 0.8 m. Initially, the spring is compressed and has a length of 0.6 m. Then under the constant applied force \( F = 300 \, \text{N} \) (in the direction shown in the image) acting on the ball, the spring is stretched to a new length of 1.3 m. Determine the work done *by the spring* on the ball during this process. Please pay attention: the numbers may change since they are randomized. A negative sign must be included if the work done is negative. Your answer must include one place after the decimal point, and in the proper SI unit.

**Diagram Explanation:**

The image shows a slope inclined at \( 40^\circ \), with the ball connected to a spring. The spring is initially compressed and later stretched, as the ball moves under the influence of a force \( F \), which acts at an angle of \( 15^\circ \) to the incline.

**Input:**

- Your Answer: ______________ units

Ensure your answer includes one decimal place and the correct SI unit.
