A music wire helical compression spring is needed to support a 100 N load after being compressed 65 mm. Because of assembly considerations, the solid height cannot exceed 40 mm and the free length cannot be more than 115 mm. Consider a spring wire diameter of 2.29 mm, find the following: 1. Spring index, C 2. Factor of safety. 3. Number of active coils, Na 4. The spring free length, Lo (Comment if the spring is under the risk of buckling).
