If a spring extends by $x$ on loading,then the energy stored by the spring is (if $T$ is tension in the spring and $k$ is spring constant).

$K$ is the force constant of a spring. The work done in increasing its extension from $l_1$ to $l_2$ will be

$A$ body of mass $0.1 \ kg$ moving with a velocity of $10 \ m/s$ hits a spring (fixed at the other end) of force constant $1000 \ N/m$ and comes to rest after compressing the spring. The compression of the spring is .............. $m$.

When a $4\, kg$ mass is hung vertically on a light spring that obeys Hooke's law,the spring stretches by $2\, cm$. The work required to be done by an external agent in stretching this spring by $5\, cm$ will be ......... $J$ $(g = 9.8\, m/s^2)$.

Statement-$1$ and Statement-$2$ are given. Two springs $S_1$ and $S_2$ have force constants $k_1$ and $k_2$ respectively,where $k_1 < k_2$. They are stretched by the same force $F$. It is found that the work done on spring $S_1$ is greater than the work done on spring $S_2$.
Statement-$1$: If stretched by the same force,the work done on $S_1$ is greater than the work done on $S_2$.
Statement-$2$: $k_1 < k_2$.
