Springs in Series- Spring Constant Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Stiffness of Spring = (Stiffness of Spring 1*Stiffness of Spring 2)/(Stiffness of Spring 1+Stiffness of Spring 2)
K = (K₁*K₂)/(K₁+K₂)
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Stiffness of Spring - (Measured in Newton per Meter) - Stiffness of Spring is a measure of the resistance offered by an elastic body to deformation. every object in this universe has some stiffness.
Stiffness of Spring 1 - (Measured in Newton per Meter) - The Stiffness of Spring 1 is the force per unit length required to deflect the first spring.
Stiffness of Spring 2 - (Measured in Newton per Meter) - The Stiffness of spring 2 is the force per unit length required to deflect the second spring.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Stiffness of Spring 1: 49 Newton per Millimeter --> 49000 Newton per Meter (Check conversion here)
Stiffness of Spring 2: 51 Newton per Millimeter --> 51000 Newton per Meter (Check conversion here)

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

K = (K₁*K₂)/(K₁+K₂) --> (49000*51000)/(49000+51000)

Evaluating ... ...

K = 24990

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

24990 Newton per Meter -->24.99 Newton per Millimeter (Check conversion here)

FINAL ANSWER

24.99 Newton per Millimeter <-- Stiffness of Spring

(Calculation completed in 00.020 seconds)

FAQ

What is Springs in Series- Spring Constant?

The Springs in Series- Spring Constant formula is defined as the effective spring constant when two individual springs are acting together in series and is represented as K = (K₁*K₂)/(K₁+K₂) or Stiffness of Spring = (Stiffness of Spring 1*Stiffness of Spring 2)/(Stiffness of Spring 1+Stiffness of Spring 2). The Stiffness of Spring 1 is the force per unit length required to deflect the first spring & The Stiffness of spring 2 is the force per unit length required to deflect the second spring.

How to calculate Springs in Series- Spring Constant?

The Springs in Series- Spring Constant formula is defined as the effective spring constant when two individual springs are acting together in series is calculated using Stiffness of Spring = (Stiffness of Spring 1*Stiffness of Spring 2)/(Stiffness of Spring 1+Stiffness of Spring 2). To calculate Springs in Series- Spring Constant, you need Stiffness of Spring 1 (K₁) & Stiffness of Spring 2 (K₂). With our tool, you need to enter the respective value for Stiffness of Spring 1 & Stiffness of Spring 2 and hit the calculate button. You can also select the units (if any) for Input(s) and the Output as well.

How many ways are there to calculate Stiffness of Spring?

In this formula, Stiffness of Spring uses Stiffness of Spring 1 & Stiffness of Spring 2. We can use 1 other way(s) to calculate the same, which is/are as follows -

Stiffness of Spring = Stiffness of Spring 1+Stiffness of Spring 2
