GENERAL INTRODUCTION
1.1 Helical Spring
Helical spring is defined as an elastic body, whose function is to distort when loaded and to recover its original shape when the load is removed. The helical springs are made up of a wire coiled in the form of a helix and are primarily intended for compressive or tensile loads. The cross-section of the wire from which the spring is made may be circular, square or rectangular. Helical compression springs have applications to resist applied compression forces or in the push mode, store energy to provide the "push". Different forms of compression springs are produced. The helical springs are said to be closely coiled when the spring wire is coiled so close that the plane containing each

• Measuring forces, as in the case of spring balances. Ex weighing machine.
• Storing energy, as in the case of clock spring & spring used in the toys.
• Reduce the effect of shock loading .as in the case of vehicle suspension spring.
• Changing the vibration characteristics of machine mounted on founded beds.
1.5 Design of Helical Spring A helical compression spring made of circular wire and subjected to an axial load W as shown in fig. D = Mean diameter of the spring coil d = Diameter of the spring wire n = Number of active coils G= Modulus of rigidity for spring material F =Axial Force on the spring.

Hinge The convex surface of one bone fits into the concave surface of another bone, Hinge joint are uniaxial because they allow motion around a single axis. Produces an opening and closing motion.
Compression is the force pressing a material and compacting it and acts on the towers of a suspension bridge, this force is created from the weight of the towers and the load on the bridge. Compression forces will also act on the surface of the bridge deck as when a load is applied it will have some flexibility and bend, it will then travel up the cables, ropes or chains to transfer the compression forces to the towers. The towers then dissipate the compression directly into the earth. (Bagga 2014).
Load acts over outer circumference of on end of the cylinder, while the other end remains against a

An extension spring, when pulled apart tries to contract to keep its original shape. When the slinky fell down the stairs the same thing was observed. There were two different types of slinky, medium and large. The medium slinky had a mass of 213.65g and could stretch 46.1m. The large slinky had a mass of 287.95g and could stretch 6.5m. The main objective was to understand the physics of a slinky/spring. It was found through research that the slinky was actually invented by a naval engineer working on suspension for a navy ship
(e.g., pivoted, collapsed, bowed, folded, and so forth.) so that the setae get to be stretched out in
The purpose of this project was to use parts salvaged from the deconstruction project to build a new machine that could complete a task. Two choices were presented as the task: option one was to lift an object of undetermined weight up to a height of twenty to sixty centimeters, and then deliver that object to a platform twenty centimeters in height; option two was to launch a tennis ball sized object through a goal post one to two feet in height. After analyzing our available materials, we opted for option one. We measured success in this task by our device’s ability to lift and deposit that object, as per the requirements of the task.
This force is used when finding the spring constant for the elastic potential energy. The larger the force required to pull the spoon down, the larger the spring potential is. We find this relationship between the force and the spring constant from the spring constant equation, which is the force divided by the change in the distance stretched/compressed. This force is a little different each time a catapult is pulled down, as the elastic will stretch and become easier to pull down overtime. This means the data at the beginning of testing will differ from the results at the end of
Compression is the last thing going on here in this experiment. Compression is thrust, load, stress, compressing, squeezing, crushing, weight, and heaviness. Take the paper again and after you’ve used tension with it let's use compression. If you crush the paper into a ball. This is compression. Now compression is similar to pressure in this project actually, pressure causes compression but they are a little bit different. Take another example an air compressor. The machine inside is compressing and compressing because it is trapped. When you cut out the bottoms of the cups you see that the cups fall and you do too this is compression in this experiment. You can compress almost anything in the

Hence, the hoop stress can be used to decide the diameter (diameter ∝ hoop stress) of the pressure vessel and choose convenient material with required material strength.
Physics is the study that deals with the properties, changes, and interactions of energy and matter. It can be applied to a majority of daily activities, one including equestrian show Jumping. The sport of equestrian show jumping requires a connection between horse and rider, and an understanding of how the horse gets from point A to point B. Many components of equestrian jumping take a lot of technique and courage, as well as applied physics. Newton’s three laws of motion are portrayed through different components of riding, such as the horse and rider’s balance, jump and even fall.
