Find the coefficient of stiffness of a steel spring that is compressed 10 cm under a force of 12 N.

Task data: Δx (steel spring compression value) = 10 cm (0.1 m); F (force compressing the steel spring) = 12 N.

The stiffness coefficient of the steel spring taken is determined by the formula: F = -Fcont. = k * Δx and k = F / Δx.

Calculation: k = 12 / 0.1 = 120 N / m.

Answer: The steel spring taken has a stiffness factor of 120 N / m.
