A spring is a mechanical device that stores and releases energy through its elastic properties. It is typically made from materials that exhibit elasticity, allowing it to deform when a force is applied and return to its original shape when the force is removed. Springs are widely used in various applications across engineering, manufacturing, and everyday devices. There are several common types of springs, including: 1. **Compression Springs**: These springs are designed to resist axial compression.
