$STATEMENT-1$ For an observer looking out through the window of a fast moving train, the nearby objects appear to move in the opposite direction to the train, while the distant objects appear to be stationary. and

$STATEMENT-2$ If the observer and the object are moving at velocities $\vec{V}_1$ and $\vec{V}_2$ respectively with reference to a laboratory frame, the velocity of the object with respect to the observer is $\overrightarrow{\mathrm{V}}_2-\overrightarrow{\mathrm{V}}_1$.

A large number $(n)$ of identical beads, each of mass $m$ and radius $r$ are strung on a thin smooth rigid horizontal rod of length $L\, (L >> r)$ and are at rest at random positions. The rod is mounted between two rigid supports (see figure) . If one of the beads is now given a speed $v$, the average force experienced by each support after a long time is (assume all collisions are elastic)
This question has Statement $-1$ and Statement $-2$. Of the four choices given after the statements, choose the one that best describes the two statements.

If two springs $S_1$ and $S_2$ of force constants $k_1$ and $k_2$, respectively, are stretched by the same force, it is found that more work is done on spring $S_1$ than on spring $S_2$.

Statement $-1$: If stretched by the same amount, work done on $S_1$, will be more than that on $S_2$

Statement $-2$ : $k_1 < k_2$.
