How is finding the spring constant/tension useful

[From: ] [author: ] [Date: 12-02-18] [Hit: ]
the springs are compressed by a certain amount.For more details maybe you could try asking under Engineering.......
How are these useful in everday life/making of appliances etc.? I really need a detailed answer; I asked something similar before but got a very basic literally 3 worded answer..a detailed explanation would really help a LOT! Many thanks in advance!

Engineers/designers need to know the spring constant and tension when designing systems/machines that use springs, e.g.
- car suspension systems
- spring balances for weighing
- trampoline design
- spring mattresses
and loads more.

I can't give a detailed answer as I am not an engineer or designer. But using a bit of intuition, it is clear that a car designer will have to select the correct springs with a suitable spring constant for a car suspension system so that, for the car's weight, the springs are compressed by a certain amount. For more details maybe you could try asking under 'Engineering'.
