Elastic force of material is demonstrated through the choice of some kind of potential and consequently force of interaction is derived, considering its equivalence with a diatomic molecule. Some insight about the experiment of determining spring constant of a spring is presented. Theoretical preliminaries discussed here are mainly meant for pedagogic values.

Elastic force of material is demonstrated through the choice of some kind of potential and consequently force of interaction is derived, considering its equivalence with a diatomic molecule. Some insight about the experiment of determining spring constant of a spring is presented. Theoretical preliminaries discussed here are mainly meant for pedagogic values.
