JEE Main & Advanced Physics Elasticity Question Bank Work Done in Stretching a Wire

  • question_answer
    If the force constant of a wire is K, the work done in increasing the length of the wire by l is      [MP PMT 1989]

    A) Kl/2        

    B)                 Kl

    C)                 \[K{{l}^{2}}/2\] 

    D)                 \[K{{l}^{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    \[K=\frac{F}{l}\]and  \[W=\frac{1}{2}Fl=\frac{1}{2}Kl\times l=\frac{1}{2}K{{l}^{2}}\]
