Hello, can you tell me if springs with the same K and different diameters have different speeds? Example; a spring with a diameter of 50mm with a total length of 500mm, assuming that it would have a rate of 0.500 kgf/mm and another spring with the same K and the same length but with a diameter of 60mm would have different speeds. If you compress both and release, would the speed be the same or would one extend faster than the other? This is my question, if you can help I would appreciate it. Thanks.
@@mecheinsider9533 Agreed. For this purpose, it is recommend to ground the ends for more than 270 degrees. Meaning to create the extrude cut of 3/4 of wire dia, so that the applied force doesn't tend to bend it towards the side.
That case is known as square and ground ends. Usually it is not cost effective due to the additional machining required so that's why i chose simple plain and ground ends to simulate.
