Gold is actually very soft. If rings were made of pure gold they would bend and become disfigured. Other elements are added to give the ring its stability.

100% gold is too soft, and isn't nearly as durable as it needs to be.

A spring requires a force of 25 n to produce an extension of 2 cm in it. what is the work done in further extending it by 3 cm
Sonbull [250]
The force of a spring can be calculated by the expression:

F = kx  where k is a constant and x is the distance.

From the problem statement, we can solve the value of k from the initial conditions given as F = 25 N and x = 2 cm.

25 = k (0.02)
k = 1250

We use the work formula which is force times the distance resulting to the expression:

W = (1/2)(kx^2)
W = (1/2)(1250)(0.03^2)
W = 0.5625 J
