    Elastic forces are conservative only when Hooke's law is obeyed
  • D
    Elastic forces are not conservative

Answer

Correct option: A.
Elastic forces are not always conservative
a
(a)

Since at every value of force material is not able to gain its shape. Therefore elastic forces are not always conservative.

The ratio of surface tensions of mercury and water is given to be $7.5$ while the ratio of their densities is $13.6$. Their contact angles, with glass, are close to $135^o$ and $0^o$, respectively. It is observed that mercury gets depressed by an amount $h$ in a capillary tube of radius $r_1$, while water rises by the same amount $h$ in a capillary tube of radius $r_2$. The ratio, $(r_1/r_2)$, is then close to
