21. To stretch a certain nonlinear spring by an amount xx requires a force FF given by F=40x−6x2F=40 x-6 x^{2}, where FF is in newtons and xx is in meters. What is the change in potential energy when the spring is stretched 2 meters from its equilibrium position? (A) 16 J (B) 28 J (C) 56 J (D) 64 J (E) 80 J (A) 16 J (B) 28 J (C) 56 J (D) 64 J (E) 80 J
