Correct Answer: Option C
Explanation

F = ke

k = \(\frac{F_1}{e_1}\)

F\(_1\) = 10N, e\(_1\) = 0.02m

F\(_2\) = 40N, e\(_2\) = ?

\(\frac{F_1}{e_1}\) =  \(\frac{F_2}{e_2}\)

\(\frac{10}{0.02}\) =  \(\frac{40}{e_2}\)

 e\(_2\) = \(\frac{40 \times 0.02}{10}\) = 0.08m

The new length = 1 + 0.08 = 1.08m
