A load P is supported by two springs arranged IN SERIES. The upper spring has 20 turns of 20mm-diameter wire on a mean diameter of 150 mm. The lower spring consist of 15 turns of 10mm-diameter wire on a mean diameter of 130 mm. Determine the value of P in Newtons that will cause a total deflection of 80 mm. Assume G = 80 GPa for both springs. Note: Illustrate the problem.
