A rigid plate of negligible mass rests on a central spring which is higher than the symmetrically located outer springs. Each of the springs consists of 18 turns of 10 mm wire on a mean diameter mm. The central spring has 24 turns of 20 mm wire on a mean dia of 150 mm. If a load P = 5 kN is now applied to the plate, use G = MPа. Determine the load carried by the central spring, in kN. Determine the shearing stress of the central spring, in MPa. Determine the shearing stress of the outer spring, in MPa.

Question
A rigid plate of negligible mass rests on a central spring which is 20 mm
higher than the symmetrically located outer springs. Each of the outer
springs consists of 18 turns of 10 mm wire on a mean diameter of 100
mm. The central spring has 24 turns of 20 mm wire on a mean diameter
of 150 mm. If a load P = 5 kN is now applied to the plate, use G = 83,000
MPа.
Determine the load carried by the central spring, in kN.
Determine the shearing stress of the central spring, in MPa.
Determine the shearing stress of the outer spring, in MPa.
