If you are designing a product that requires any sort of smart-motion precision, spring parts that apply constant force or constant resistance are key mechanical design elements to consider. Two of ...

In this chapter, we’ll explore how to calculate the spring constant of a block on an incline! 🧲 Learn the step-by-step process to solve this problem and apply your knowledge of forces, friction, and ...

This model simulates the mechanical behavior of a spring and damper system shown in Figure 14.80. Figure 14.80: Spring and Damper System Model A mass is hung from a spring with spring constant K. The ...

In this video, we explore how Young's Modulus is related to the interatomic spring constant. Learn how materials deform under stress and how the microscopic forces between atoms affect the overall ...

To investigate experimentally the extension of a spring and how it is related to the applied force, and recall that the extension of a spring is directly proportional to the force applied, provided ...

I blame Destin and his interesting sling shot video. Watch it. In this video, he claims that rubber bands do not act like springs. By "acting like springs" of course he means Hooke's law. This ...

Introduction Have you ever played with a Slinky, used a pinball machine, written with a click pen or ridden in a car? If so, then you have made use of a spring! Springs are in machines all around us ...
