All you do is insult people if they disagree with you - when will jsp give you a warning for your spamming and insult and rage?

2. a resilient device, typically a helical metal coil, that can be pressed or pulled but returns to its former shape when released, used chiefly to exert constant tensionor absorb movement.

If you actually ever read the thread this discussion you'd know that a slinky does not exert a constant tension throughout itself and this is why it is not a functioning spring.


Because constant tension does not apply to all spring types. There are four main types of springs (which I already pointed out in this thread), and constant-tension is only one of those types, and does not apply to other types (compression, extension, and torsion). An actual constant-tension spring is generally a thin sheet metal that is wrapped around a cylinder, with one end attached to the cylinder, and the other end attached to a loading force.

This is an example of what a constant-tension spring looks like:

This is not important in that sentence - exerting a constant tension is the difference


exerting constant force is chiefly a characteristic of springs, but that's only because springs are chiefly compression springs. tension springs are at rest in their normal shape. thus their name.

i understand why you think the use and constant force are important, it's all you have left in this discussion. but it's not at all relevant to the first sentence, which is the definition. the second sentence is simply an example to provide the reader with clarity, it had the opposite effect on you.

This post is a violation of the site rules and appropriate action was taken.

Springs are springy because of conserved energy.

Same thing with slinkies, except the effect is the reverse of a spring. The conserved energy comes from being stretched out
Which give it resistance energy and causes it to compress as its falling in the opposite direction of gravities pull. Hence it doesnt falln until the energy is spent.
Stop being dumb

your hanging yourself with you're strawman attacks - D2jsp should ban you

You're like a little kid so i can't be mad at you, just not impressed with your repeated juvenile 12 year old behaviour. :(
