Question: A close - coiled helical spring has 1 0 0 mm coil diameter and is made of steel wire having a diameter of 3 0

A close-coiled helical spring has 100 mm coil diameter and is made of steel wire having a diameter of 30
mm with 20 complete turns. It is used to arrest a moving mass of 1.0 kg having maximum compression of 50
mm . Find the maximum velocity of the moving mass that can be arrested with the spring. At that instant, find
the maximum theoretical stress that is developed within the spring. Assume G=200GPa. Assume that
throughout the process, total energy remnins constant. [50.31 m/s,719 MPa ]
