8. Six spring constants are present in the spring system. The first spring is parallel with the second spring. The third spring is collinear with the fourth spring. The fifth and sixth springs are equidistant with each other. The first four combinations formed a parallel conjunction which is in series with the last formed combinations. Draw the spring system described and derive the equivalent spring constant.

Figure below shows a mass-spring model of the type used to design packaging systems and vehicle suspensions, for example. The springs exert a force that is proportional to their compression, and the proportionality constant is the spring constant k. The two side springs provide additional resistance if the weight W is too heavy for the center spring. When the weight W is gently placed, it moves through a distance x before coming to rest. From statics, the weight force must balance the spring forces at this new position. (if x=d) These relations can be used to generate the plot of x versus W. (a) The following values are given: k1=104 N/m; k2 = 1.5 *104 N/m; d =0.1 m.
