What is a spring caliper used for?
There is no spring caliper.
What is the spring constant of a spring?
The ratio of force applied to how much the spring streches (or compresses). In the SI, the spring constant would be expressed in Newtons/meter. A larger spring constant means the spring is "stiffer" - more force is required to stretch it a certain amount.
What is the length of the spring when a weightof 10n hangs from it?
depends on the initial length of the spring, and how much force is required to stretch the spring
What units do you use on the spring scale?
The unit used on spring scales is 'Newtons.'
What is the formula to find the spring constant?
F = - k x In this equation, x is the distance that the spring has been stretched or compressed away from its equilibrium position F is the restoring force exerted by the spring. k is the spring constant.
When a longitudinal wave carries energy through a spring the area where the coils of spring are closer together than they would be in the rest position is called?
Compression.
How the spacing between coils of a spring changes I feel the amplitude of compression waves traveling along the spring increases?
As the amplitude of compression waves increases, the spacing between coils of the spring decreases. This is due to the increased compression force causing the coils to be pushed closer together. The closer spacing helps to transmit the increased energy of the compression waves more efficiently along the length of the spring.
How could you model a compression wave using a coiled spring toy?
To model a compression wave using a coiled spring toy, you can compress one end of the spring and then release it, observing how the compression travels through the coils as a wave. The coils will move closer together in the compressed region and propagate along the spring as a wave until it reaches the other end. This demonstration can help visualize how compression waves move through a medium like a spring.
How the spacing between coils of a spring changes if the amplitude of compression waves traveling along the spring increases?
If the amplitude of compression waves traveling along the spring increases, the spacing between coils of the spring will decrease. This is because the increased energy from the compression waves causes the coils to compress and come closer together. In essence, the increased amplitude results in a more compacted spring configuration.
How much do replacement compression springs cost?
Compression springs cost about $3-$5 per spring.
What is compression spring balance function?
A compression spring balance is a device that uses the mechanical force of a spring to measure weight or force. As a load is applied, the spring compresses or extends, and this change in length is proportional to the force being measured. The amount of compression corresponds to the weight of the object being weighed.
How are force and extension related?
Force and extension are related through Hooke's Law, which states that the force needed to stretch or compress a spring is directly proportional to the extension or compression of the spring. This means that the more force applied, the greater the extension (or compression) of the spring, and vice versa. Mathematically, this relationship can be expressed as F = kx, where F is the force, k is the spring constant, and x is the extension (or compression) of the spring.
TENSION?
The pull or compression of a string or spring at both of its ends
What forces is a coil spring subjected to?
A coil spring is primarily subjected to two forces: compression and tension. Compression force occurs when the spring is being pushed or compressed, while tension force occurs when the spring is being pulled or extended. These forces cause the spring to deform and store potential energy.
When the helical compression spring is subjected to axial compressive force the type of induced in the spring wire is?
When a helical compression spring is subjected to axial compressive force, the type of stress induced in the spring wire is primarily compressive stress. This stress is caused by the load that the spring is supporting, leading to a reduction in the length of the spring along its axial direction.
Is there a difference in the spring force when the spring is compressed instead of stretched?
Yes, the spring force will be different when the spring is compressed compared to when it is stretched. When a spring is compressed, it exerts a force in the opposite direction to the compression force, while when it is stretched, it exerts a force in the same direction as the stretching force.
What is it called when a spring is fully compressed?
When a spring is fully compressed, it is in a state of maximum compression or fully condensed.
