Two springs of spring constants 1500 N/m and 3000 N/m respectively are stretched with the same force. They will have potential energy in the ratio (a) 4 : 1 (b) 1 : 4 (c) 2 : 1 (d) 1 : 2
Added by Arun B.
Step 1
Step 1: Given that the potential energy of a spring is given by the formula \( U = \frac{F^2}{2k} \), where \( F \) is the force applied and \( k \) is the spring constant. Show more…
