Homework Statement
Ans) F/k
Homework Equations
The Attempt at a Solution
Consider only figure a) .
I believe the given answer is wrong . The maximum extension should be 2F/k . F/k is the extension in the spring in the equilibrium position . Maximum extension should be double of that .
Work energy theorem also gives maximum extension to be 2F/k .
But the answer given is F/k .The book answers are mostly correct .
Is book answer correct ?
