A concentric helical spring is used to support a load of 90 KN. The inner spring has a rate of 495.8 KN/m and outside spring is 126.5 KN/m. If initially the inner spring is 25 mm shorter than the outer spring, find the percent load carried by the inner spring. The correct answer is 76.81%. I just need the solution for this answer, thank you!
