Detailed Solution

Let the mass of the block hanging from the spring be m. Then initial elongation of the spring will be equal to mg/k. When the force F is applied to pull the block down, the work done by F and further loss of gravitational potential energy of the block is used to increase strain energy of this spring.

         (+mgδ)=12kmgk+δ2m2g22k                          …(i)

From Eq.(i) δ=2F/k

Hence, option (2) is correct.

Since a constant force is applied on the block to pull it down, during this process, work done by force, W=. Hence, option (3) is also correct.

Increase in energy of the spring is equal to

         12kmgk+δ2m2g22k

From this equation, increase in energy is not equal to 122.

Hence, option (4) is wrong.
