Question:

Suppose that a DNA molecule resists being extended from an equilibrium, more compact conformation with a restoring force F=−kfx, where x is the difference in the end-to-end distance of the chain from an equilibrium value and kf is the force constant. Use this model to write an expression for the work that must be done to extend a DNA molecule by a distance x. Draw a graph of your conclusion.
