A spring of natural length 'l' is fixed at one end and a block of mass 'm' is attached to its other end. The system rests on a smooth horizontal table. The block is pulled to extend the spring by an amount 'x' and then released. The total mechanical energy of the system at any instant during the oscillation, when the extension is 'y', is:
(1/2)k
(1/2)k( - )
(1/2)k
(1/2)k( + )
A spring with spring constant is compressed by a distance . What is the potential energy stored in the spring?

Doubled
Halved
Quadrupled
Unchanged
