Q3: How do coil springs work?

A3: When a force is applied to a coil spring, the individual coils are compressed or stretched, resulting in a flexible spring that can be used to store energy or absorb forces. The amount of force or energy that the spring can absorb is determined by the number of coils, spring rate, and spring wire diameter.
