what is the relationship between force and stretch for a spring stretching out unstretched?

The proportional constant k is called the spring constant. It is a measure of the spring's stiffness. When a spring is stretched or compressed, so that its length changes by an amount x from its equilibrium length, then it exerts a force F = -kx in a direction towards its equilibrium position.

The origin is the fixed point that doesn't move during contraction, while the insertion does move. Your bones are the levers and your muscles are the pulley.

Most of the theoretical studies relating the surface electromyogram (s.e.m.g.) to muscular force suggest that the amplitude of the e.m.g. should increase proportionately with the square root of the tension. However, direct experiments have shown a linear relationship.

(k is called the spring constant, which measures how stiff and strong the spring is. ... In Hooke's law, the negative sign on the spring's force means that the force exerted by the spring opposes the spring's displacement.

Tension Formula. The tension on an object is equal to the mass of the object x gravitational force plus/minus the mass x acceleration.

Garage door extension springs counterbalance the weight of garage doors to make them easy to open and close. ... Extension springs are stretched with cables and pulleys. One end of the cable attaches to the bottom of the door; the other end of the cable is usually secured to the horizontal track angle with an s-hook.

Noun. spring constant (plural spring constants) (physics) A characteristic of a spring which is defined as the ratio of the force affecting the spring to the displacement caused by it.

The force cause by acting of muscle in our body when two interacting bodies are in direct physical contact with each other is called Muscular Force. Mechanical force is an energy that requires a medium for it to travel. When this force is applied on an object, it can cause it to bend, scratch it, or break the object.

In its most basic form, the length-tension relationship states that isometric tension generation in skeletal muscle is a function of the magnitude of overlap between actin and myosin filaments. The force generated by a muscle is a function of its velocity.

By increasing the resting length of the sarcomere, we increase the distance that the filaments can slide over each other and, thus, develop tension or force development. However, if we stretch the sarcomere so there is no overlap between the filaments, the myosin cannot attach to the thin filament.

Question: A 1-kilogram mass is attached to a spring whose constant is 14 N/m, and the entire system is then submerged in a liquid that imparts a damping force numerically equal to 9 times the instantaneous velocity.

Closed Coiled Helical Springs: Designed to resist stretching and twisting, these springs are also known as tension/extension springs. ... These springs can endure stress caused by high torsion or bending. The coils are closely wound to each other, and lie on the same axis of the helix.

Axial tension force is stress imposed on a body that tends to cause it to become longer. Tensile stress may be likened to stretching, or lengthening, and is the opposite of compressive stress, or shortening.

The constant k is called the spring constant and is always a positive number. The minus sign in the above equation keeps track of the direction of the force, the force exerted by the spring is always opposite in direction to the direction the spring is stretched.

From calculus, the formula is (0.5)kx^2, where x^2 is the square of the initial displacement of the end of the spring. The kinetic and potential energy at any point will sum to this value. Identify the spring's maximum kinetic energy, at the equilibrium point, as equal to the initial potential energy.

['Slide the ruler under the string, next to the 12th fret (scale midpoint, if fretless), so the ruler is perpendicular to the string and the string is at the zero. ... ', 'If the scale length is L, the displacement is d, and the spring scale reading is F, then the string tension is T = (F L ) / (4 d)']

Elastic limit - the point till which the wire retains its original length after the force is withdrawn. Yield point - the point where there is a large permanent change in length with no extra load force.
