When a rubber-band is stretched by a distance x, it exerts a restoring force of magnitude F = ax + bx2 where a and b are constants. The work done in stretching the unstretched rubber band by L is : |

Answer» `1/2 ((AL^(2))/(2)+(bL^3)/(3))` Now `F=ax+bx^2` `:.dW=Fdx=int_o^L(ax+bx^2)DX=(aL^2)/(2)+(bL^3)/(3)`. |
