Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$ are given. Two springs $S_1$ and $S_2$ have force constants $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively,where $k_1 < k_2$. They are stretched by the same force $F$. It is found that the work done on spring $S_1$ is greater than the work done on spring $S_2$.
Statement-$1$: If stretched by the same force,the work done on $S_1$ is greater than the work done on $S_2$.
Statement-$2$: $k_1 < k_2$.

  • A
    Statement-$1$ is true. Statement-$2$ is true and Statement-$2$ is not the correct explanation for Statement-$1$.
  • B
    Statement-$1$ is false. Statement-$2$ is true.
  • C

$A$ spring has a natural length $l$ with one end fixed to the ceiling. The other end is fitted with a smooth ring which can slide on a horizontal rod fixed at distance $l$ below the ceiling. Initially, the spring makes an angle of $60^{\circ}$ with the vertical, when the system is released from rest. Find the angle of the spring with the vertical, when the velocity of the ring reaches half of the maximum velocity, which the ring can attain during the motion.

Does the energy stored in a spring change when it is stretched or compressed?

Two masses $m_1 = 2\,kg$ and $m_2 = 5\,kg$ are moving on a frictionless surface with velocities $10\,m/s$ and $3\,m/s$ respectively. An ideal spring with spring constant $K = 1120\,N/m$ is attached to the back of $m_2$. The maximum compression of the spring will be ............... $m$.
