For a helical compression spring with 20 active coils made from 10 gage, oil-tempered A229 steel wire, use metric units to determine the spring rate and the shear stress at a deflection of 25 mm. The spring index is 5. Is it safe?
2. A helical compression spring is made from No. 8 steel wire and is to carry a 100 lb static load at a deflection of 1 inch. The outside coil diameter of the spring is 0.972 inches. The spring ends are squared. Assume the torsional yield strength of the wire is 80000 psi, and the shear modulus is 11.4 Mpsi, determine (a) The static load corresponding to the yield strength. (b) The deflection that would be caused by the load...
2. A helical compression spring is to be designed as shown in Fig Q2. The spring is required to exert a force of Po-102 N when compressed to a length of lo=44 mm. When its length is 1=76 mm, it must exert a force of P=22 N. The spring will be cycled rapidly, with severe service required. Use ASTM A401 steel wire. The factor of safety, η, need to be larger than 1.5. Starting with a spring index of 9,...
