What are the units for the spring constant k?

Answer :

Answer:

F=k*x or

k is the spring constant, in Newtons per meter (N/m), and x is the displacement of the spring from its equilibrium position. The spring constant, k, is representative of how stiff the spring is. Stiffer (more difficult to stretch) springs have higher spring constant

Explanation:

Answer:

N/m

Explanation:

Spring force is defined as

F=kx

So,

the terms for spring constant can be rearranged to find

F/x =k

which simplifies to

N/m

since force F is in newtons, and displacement x is in meters.
