Answer:
Explanation:
Spring has a tendency to store energy in them and deform its shape when force is applied on it. Once the applied force is removed it regains its original shape and size.
It is in helical shape and is used in mattress to give structure and support. Spring have elastic nature and follows spring forces, F = k * x
where is the applied force, k is the spring constant and x is the amount of extension.
When a heavier person sits on a mattress, more weight is applied on springs and they form coils, as weight is removed they regains its shape again.
Correct Answers is A.
The machines gives us some mechanical advantage. This means the mechanical average makes the work output greater than the work input
Simple most example is a lever. The force applied is smaller and the output work is larger as compared to input.
Option B cannot be true, as there must be a force to get some work done.
Option C and D are inverse of what a machine is designed for. A small force can be exerted through a large distance to have a large force exerted through a small distance. Common Example of this principle is a screw opener.
