STATEMENT - 1: The force constant of a spring depends on the nature of the material from which the wire is made. For a given spring, the force constant is inversely proportional to the length of the spring.
STATEMENT - 2: When several springs with spring constants \(k_{1}, k_{2}, k_{3}, \ldots k_{n}\) are connected in series, the equivalent spring constant of the system is given by \(k=k_{1}+k_{2}+k_{3}+\ldots k_{n}\).
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
- Statement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is True; Statement - 2 is a correct explanation for Statement - 1
- Statement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is True; Statement - 2 is NOT a correct explanation for Statement - 1
- Statement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is False
- Statement - 1 is False, Statement - 2 is True
Answer
(C) Statement - 1 is True, Statement - 2 is False
