A light spring is initially used to suspend masses from the ceiling. When a 4.0 kg mass is attached to the spring, its length is 22.0 cm. When an additional 2.3 kg mass is attached to the bottom of the 4.0 kg mass, the spring's length measures 26.8 cm. Determine the spring's length (in cm) when no mass is attached to it.
