Solution

$\begin{gathered}
  Work\,done = \left[ {\int\limits_0^2 {F.dx}  = \,\int\limits_0^2 {kx\,dx\, = \frac{1}{2}k{x^2}} } \right]_0^2 \hfill \\
  \,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\,\, = \,\frac{1}{2}.1.\left( {4 – 0} \right) = 2\,J \hfill \\ 
\end{gathered} $
