Question

if the spring is cut into two equal halves then find spring constant of the spring​

Answer 1

Answer:

If the spring is cut into half and the same force F is applied to the half spring, the distance it should stretch is X/2, half of the original deformation. From this the new spring constant, K2 becomes K2= F/(X/2) or 2* (F/X) which is double of K.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

When a spring is cut into two halves of equal length, the spring constant of each half doubles. The product of spring constant and length remains constant. Thus K multiplied by length must be same . Thus, the new spring constant will be twice of the original spring constant
