  • Question
  • The spring constant of a spring depends on its


  • Options
  • A. length only
  • B. material only
  • C. length and its diameter
  • D. thickness, its diameter and its material

  • Correct Answer
  • thickness, its diameter and its material 

    Explanation

    In dealing with a coil spring the spring constant will depend on the stiffness of the spring material, the thicknessof the wire from which the spring is wound and, diameterof the turns of the coil, the number of turns per unit length and the overall length of the spring.
