Squared.

We can use the formula for the potential energy stored in a spring:

PE = (1/2)kx^2

Where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement or compression of the spring.

First, we need to calculate the new compression of the spring after it has been compressed by 0.3m:

x = 0.3m

Next, we need to determine the spring constant. We are given the force, so we can use the equation:

F = kx

Rearranging, we get:

k = F/x

Substituting the values, we get:

k = 300 N/m / 0.3 m

k = 1000 N/m

Now, we can plug in the values to calculate the potential energy stored in the spring:

PE = (1/2)kx^2

PE = (1/2)(1000 N/m)(0.3m)^2

PE = 45 J

Therefore, the energy stored in the spring is 45 Joules.
