NEET Physics Work Done by Forces MCQ Question

Type: MCQ-numerical-Medium-Class 11

A block attached to a spring is pulled, stretching the spring by 2 meters. If the spring constant k is 0.5 N/m, what is the work done by the spring force?

A

-1 J

B

-0.5 J

C

1 J

D

0.5 J

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The work done by the spring force is calculated using W = -kx^2/2. Substituting k = 0.5 N/m and x = 2 m, we get W = -0.5 * 2^2 / 2 = -1 J.
