Length given Deflection in Leaf Spring Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary
Formula Used
Length in Spring = sqrt((8*Deflection of Spring*Young's Modulus*Area Moment of Inertia )/Bending Moment)
L = sqrt((8*δ*E*I )/M)
This formula uses 1 Functions, 5 Variables
Functions Used
sqrt - A square root function is a function that takes a non-negative number as an input and returns the square root of the given input number., sqrt(Number)
Variables Used
Length in Spring - (Measured in Meter) - Length in Spring is the measurement or extent of something from end to end.
Deflection of Spring - (Measured in Meter) - Deflection of Spring is how a spring responds when force is applied or released.
Young's Modulus - (Measured in Pascal) - Young's Modulus is a mechanical property of linear elastic solid substances. It describes the relationship between longitudinal stress and longitudinal strain.
Area Moment of Inertia - (Measured in Meter⁴) - Area Moment of Inertia is a moment about the centroidal axis without considering mass.
Bending Moment - (Measured in Newton Meter) - Bending Moment is the reaction induced in a structural element when an external force or moment is applied, causing the element to bend.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Deflection of Spring: 3.4 Millimeter --> 0.0034 Meter (Check conversion here)
Young's Modulus: 20000 Megapascal --> 20000000000 Pascal (Check conversion here)
Area Moment of Inertia: 0.0016 Meter⁴ --> 0.0016 Meter⁴ No Conversion Required
Bending Moment: 67.5 Kilonewton Meter --> 67500 Newton Meter (Check conversion here)
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
L = sqrt((8*δ*E*I )/M) --> sqrt((8*0.0034*20000000000*0.0016 )/67500)
Evaluating ... ...
L = 3.59093508919541
STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit
3.59093508919541 Meter -->3590.93508919541 Millimeter (Check conversion here)
FINAL ANSWER
3590.93508919541 3590.935 Millimeter <-- Length in Spring

What is Leaf Spring?

A leaf spring takes the form of a slender arc-shaped length of spring steel of rectangular cross-section. In the most common configuration, the center of the arc provides location for the axle, while loops formed at either end provide for attaching to the vehicle chassis. For very heavy vehicles, a leaf spring can be made from several leaves stacked on top of each other in several layers, often with progressively shorter leaves.
