Force on a spring is given by
|
|
spring constant / extension
|
|
|
spring constant x extension
|
|
|
1/2 x spring constant x extension2
|
|
|
spring constant / extension2
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -F =-kx. The proportional constant k is called the spring constant. It is a measure of the spring’s stiffness. When a spring is stretched or compressed, so that its length changes by an amount x from its equilibrium length, then it exerts a force F =-kx in a direction towards its equilibrium position.
