Give scientific reason the clock gets potential energy when its spring is wound​

Answer»

Answer:

When the SPRING of the clock is wound the work done on the spring by winding it gets stored in it as a POTENTIAL ENERGY (PE). This Potential Energy can be utilised by the clock mechanism to operate.

If the spring constant is k then by winding it for length X, the potential energy stored in the spring will be \frac{1}{2}kx^2
