Identical spring of steel and copper are equally stretched. On which more work will have to be done ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

We know that the young's modulus of steel is greater than of copper. So in order to produce same extension, a large force will have to be applied on the steel spring than copper string. This shows that more work will b edone on spring of steel.
