  1. Question 1

    Q1. A spring of spring constant 100 N/m is compressed by 0.1 m. What is the energy stored?

    • A) 0.1 J
    • B) 0.5 J
    • C) 1 J
    • D) 5 J

    Answer: 0.5 J

    Explanation: Energy stored = 1/2 kx² = 1/2 * 100 * 0.1² = 0.5 J, using the formula for energy stored in a spring.
