A mechanism used in printing machinery consists of a helical spring which is having a wire diameter of 5mm and an outside diameter of 60mm. The spring has 12 active coils. If the permissible shear stress of the spring material is 335 N/mm2 and the Modulus of rigidity is 81 kN/mm2.  a) Calculate the axial load in N and the deflection of the spring in mm, neglecting the effect of curvature.       b) Calculate the value of axial load in N considering the effect of curvature.
