(a)

Springs constant ,k is the ratio of force to the extension // k = F / x

(b)(i)

Spring X

(ii)

Spring X is thicker
Spring X is stiffer
Spring X extend shorter than spring Y for the same force
k = F / x , extension of spring is shorter, the value of k is higher

c)

Aspect
Explanation
Small diamete
enough space for the spring to be installed // more stiffer
High elastic limit
can support heavy load
higher spring
small compression of the spring
constant
small natural
reduce bumping
frequency
S is chosen because it has small diameter , highest elastic limit ,highest
spring constant and small natural frequency
