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:

Define the difference between "constant tension" and "segmented tension"?

i'd feel bad if i thought it was an actual ignorance issue, we both know he's just not man enough to say he was wrong. pretty sad :(

sad dodge


you're the one who posted a definition that you didn't understand dude. its not my fault. things like "or" and "chiefly" are important.

as soon as you define "or" and tell me how it applies to YOUR definition i'll define anything you'd like, i asked first after all.

here i'll help, "or" means either thing on either side of it are correct regardless of their relationship or lack thereof to each other.

Lol, it says the conjunction "or" right after (or absorb movement) -- that gives another potential match to the definition. You don't have your listening ears on :(

Define the difference between a constant-tension spring, and other types of springs.

Oh wait, I already provided that information:
