Spring Force Calculator, Formula, Spring Force Calculation

Spring Force Calculator:

Enter the values of spring constant, k_(N/m) and displacement of the spring, x_(m) to determine the value of spring force, F_s(N).

Spring Force Calculator:

Spring force, often represented as, is the force exerted by a compressed or stretched spring onto any object that is attached to it. The force exerted by a spring is proportional to its displacement.

Spring force, F_s(N) in Newton is equated by the product of spring constant, k_(N/m) in Newton per metre and displacement of the spring, x_(m) in metres.

Spring force, F_s(N) = k_(N/m) * x_(m)

F_s(N) = spring force in Newton, N.

k_(N/m) = spring constant in Newton per metre, N/m.

x_(m) = displacement of the spring in metre, m.

Spring Force Calculation:

1. A spring with a spring constant 300N/m is compressed by 0.02 metres. Calculate the force exerted by the spring.

Given: k_(N/m) = 300N/m, x_(m) = 0.02m.

Spring force, F_s(N) = k_(N/m) * x_(m)

F_s(N) = 300 * 0.02

F_s(N) = 6N.

2. A spring exerts a force of 10 Newtons (N) when it is stretched by 0.25 metres (m). Calculate the spring constant k.

Given: F_s(N) = 10N, x_(m) = 0.25m.

Spring force, F_s(N) = k_(N/m) * x_(m)

k_(N/m) = F_s(N) / x_(m)

k_(N/m) = 10 / 0.25

k_(N/m) =  40N/m.
