and
, such that
. They are stretched, first by the same amount (case a), then by the same force (case b). The work done by the springs
and
are related as, in case
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
C
Given, 
In case , the elongation is same
i.e. 
So,
and 

In case , the spring force is same
i.e. 
So, 

and
