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, Fs(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, Fs(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, Fs(N) = k(N/m) * x(m)
Fs(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:
- 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, Fs(N) = k(N/m) * x(m)
Fs(N) = 300 * 0.02
Fs(N) = 6N.
- A spring exerts a force of 10 Newtons (N) when it is stretched by 0.25 metres (m). Calculate the spring constant k.
Given: Fs(N) = 10N, x(m) = 0.25m.
Spring force, Fs(N) = k(N/m) * x(m)
k(N/m) = Fs(N) / x(m)
k(N/m) = 10 / 0.25
k(N/m) = 40N/m.
