A spring has a force constant of \(100~\text{N/m}\) and an unstretched length of \(0.07~\text m.\) One end is attached to a post that is free to rotate in the centre of a smooth table, as shown in the top view. The other end is attached to a \(1~\text{kg}\) disc moving in uniform circular motion on the table, which stretches the spring by \(0.03~\text m.\) Friction is negligible.

What is the work done on the disc by the spring during one full circle?
1. \(0~\text J\) 2. \(94~\text J\)
3. \(186~\text J\) 4. \(314~\text J\)
