JEE Main Physics question
Statement 1: Graph between potential energy of a spring versus the extension or compression of the spring is a straight line. Statement 2: Potential energy of a stretched or compressed spring is proportional to square of extension or compression.
Answer: (D)
Solution
Since U = ½kx², U ∝ x², so the U-x graph is a parabola, not a straight line —
