The potential energy of a spring is given by the equation PE = (kx^2)/2 where k is a constant and x is the distance the spring is stretched. If K =16 and the spring is stretched to 2 feet and then to 3 feet, how much potential energy is gained by the spring from the moment it is stretched 2 feet to the moment it is stretched 3 feet?
