The smaller of two concentric helical springs is made of 22 mm diameter steel spring and has an inside diameter of 56 mm with 10 active coils. The outer spring is made of 32 mm steel spring and has an outside diameter of 250 mm with 8 active coils. Before load is applied, the outer spring is 25 mm longer than the inner spring. If the load is 90,000 N is applied to this rest of springs. Find the rate of each spring.

A bicycle chain consists of a series of small links, where each are 12 mm long between the centers of the pins (see figure). You might wish to examine a bicycle chain and observe its construction. Note particularly the pins, which have a diameter of 2.5 mm. To solve this problem, make two measurements on a bicycle (see figure): (1) the length L of the crank arm from main axle to pedal axle and (2) the radius R of the sprocket (the toothed wheel, sometimes called the chainring). (a) Using your measured dimensions, calculate the tensile force T in the chain due to a force F = 800 N applied to one of the pedals. (b) Calculate the average shear stress T averin the pins.
