What is the value of force constant obtained by plotting the graph between the applied force (F) and the extention (x) ?

A

`(1)/(2)`

B

`(1)/(sqrt(3))`

C

`(sqrt(3))/(2)`

D

`sqrt(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D

`because F = Kx :. K = (F)/(K)`
i.e. the force constant K is given by the slope of the graph of F against x.
`:.` Slope `= tan 60^(@) = sqrt(3)`
