Two similar springs $P$ and $Q$ have spring constants $K_P$ and $K_Q$,such that $K_P > K_Q$. They are stretched first by the same amount (case $a$),then by the same force (case $b$). The work done by the springs $W_P$ and $W_Q$ are related as,in case $(a)$ and case $(b)$ respectively:

$A$ block of mass $100 \ g$ moving at a speed of $2 \ m \ s^{-1}$ compresses a spring through a distance $2 \ cm$ before its speed is halved. Find the spring constant of the spring. (in $N \ m^{-1}$)

If a spring extends by $x$ on loading,then the energy stored by the spring is (if $T$ is tension in the spring and $k$ is spring constant).

$A$ spring,when stretched by $2 \,mm$,has a potential energy of $4 \,J$. If it is stretched by $10 \,mm$,its potential energy will be:
