Re: Engineering Challenge- Spring Loaded Kicker Edition
Decrease spring rate and preload the springs to produce a more constant spring force.
When graphing Force vs displacement, without preloading you get a triangle. Preloading the springs makes it a trapazoid or in an ideal world a rectangle. The area under the curve represents Work.
More work = more kick
