Question

5.Assertion: Stretched bow has Potential Energy

Reason: Work is done when a bow is stretched and the work done will be store in the form

of
potential energy.
a) Both A and R are true, and R is correct explanation of the assertion.

b) Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

c) A is true, but R is false.

d) A is false, but R is true.

e) A and R are false​

Answer 1

BOTH A AND R ARE TRUE AND R IS THE CORRECT EXPLANATION OF THE ASSERTIA

PotentialEnergy=0.5kx

When bow is stretched x is -ve. Work will be done by bow to restore itself to the original shape. Hence, this Potential Energy is the work done against its restoring force.

Hope it helps ☺️
