Jak vypočítat Spring Constant
Co je Spring Constant?
Hooke's Law states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring is proportional to the displacement. The spring constant k (measured in N/m) quantifies the spring's stiffness — a higher k means a stiffer spring requiring more force per unit of extension.
Vzorec
- F
- force applied (Newtons) — force applied (Newtons)
Průvodce krok za krokem
- 1F = k × x (Hooke's Law)
- 2F = force applied (Newtons)
- 3k = spring constant (N/m)
- 4x = extension or compression from equilibrium (metres)
- 5Elastic potential energy stored: PE = ½ × k × x²
