Two springs have spring constants $k_{A}$ and $k_{B}$ such that $k_{A} > k_{B}$. If both springs are stretched by the same extension $x$,the work required will be:

  • A
    more in spring $A$
  • B
    more in spring $B$
  • C
    equal in both
  • D
    nothing can be said

Two springs have their force constants as $k_1$ and $k_2$ $(k_1 > k_2)$. When they are stretched by the same force $F$,which of the following statements is true regarding the work done?

$A$ ball of mass $100 \, g$ is dropped from a height $h = 10 \, cm$ onto a platform fixed at the top of a vertical spring (as shown in the figure). The ball stays on the platform and the platform is depressed by a distance $\frac{h}{2}$. The spring constant is .......... $N \, m^{-1}$. (Use $g = 10 \, m \, s^{-2}$)

$A$ block of mass $m$ is pushed against a spring with spring constant $k$,which is fixed at one end to a wall. The block can slide on a frictionless table as shown in the figure. If the natural length of the spring is $L_0$ and it is compressed to half its length when the block is released,find the velocity of the block when the spring reaches its natural length.
