A helical spring is made of 10 m diameter steel wire wound on a 100 mm diameter mandrel. If there are 10 active coils what is spring constant Take: C= 100 GPA What force must be applied to the spring to elongate it by 50 mm?
In a compound helical spring, the inner spring is concentric with the outer spring, but is 9 mm shorter. The outer spring has ten coils of mean diameter 24 mm, and the wire diameter is 3 mm. Find the stiffness of the inner spring if an axial load of 150 N causes the outer spring to compress 18 mm. If the mean coil diameter for the inner spring is 15.94 mm, find the wire diameter of the inner spring when it has eight coils. Both the springs are made of the same material having G = 77 GPa.
