To calculate the Spring Force (Fs):
\[ Fs = k \cdot x \]
Where:
A spring force is a restoring force provided by a physical spring, a helical spring, or a torsion spring. The restoring force provided by the spring is proportional to the displacement of the elastic element. It always acts in the direction that tends to restore the equilibrium position of the body. In other words, this means that when you apply a force to compress or stretch a spring, it pushes back against that external force with a restoring force (the amount of which depends on how much the spring has been compressed or stretched).
Let's assume the following values:
Step 1: Use the Fs calculation formula:
\[ Fs = k \cdot x = 500 \cdot 0.2 = 100 \text{ N} \]
The Spring Force is 100 N.
