FAQ

What is the Spring Constant?
Spring Constant is a measure of the stiffness of a spring, defining the amount of force required to stretch or compress it by a unit distance. Spring Constant is usually measured using the Newton per Meter for Stiffness Constant. Note that the value of Spring Constant is always positive.
Can the Spring Constant be negative?
No, the Spring Constant, measured in Stiffness Constant cannot be negative.
What unit is used to measure Spring Constant?
Spring Constant is usually measured using the Newton per Meter[N/m] for Stiffness Constant. Newton per Millimeter[N/m], Kilonewton per Millimeter[N/m] are the few other units in which Spring Constant can be measured.
