The force required to stretch a spring varies with the distance as shown in the figure. If the experiment is performed with the above spring of half length, the line $OA$ will
Shift towards $F-$axis
Shift towards $X-$axis
Remain as it is
Become double in length
The force required to stretch a spring varies with the distance as shown in the figure. If the experiment is performed with the above spring of half length, the line $OA$ will
When the length of spring is halved, its spring constant will becomes double. (because $k \propto \frac{1}{x} \propto \frac{1}{L}\therefore k \propto \frac{1}{L}$)
Slope of force displacement graph gives the spring constant $(k)$ of spring.
If k becomes double then slope of the graph increases i.e. graph shifts towards force-axis.
