Question

I just want the answer for part C. I believe that in order to answer part c you need to used the formula given below the problem how ever instead of using 20lbf you need to divide it by 4 since there will be four spring but I am not certain. I know we have to use this formula though because that is what my professor said. Tell me if this is the correct approach...if not how do I solve it?

The total weight of tis plate is 20 N (3) Ans:

Explanation / Answer

Yes, your approach to find the deflection is correct. Since there are four spings connected in parallel, therfore the load shared by each spring will be equal due to symmetric loading. Hence load shared by each spring will be 20/4 = 5 lbf. And deflection has to be calculated at this load.
