There is also a focus on economic, commercial, and people-to-people ties. There are an estimated four million U.S. citizens of Philippine ancestry in the United States, and more than 220,000 U.S. citizens in the Philippines, including a large presence of United States veterans. An estimated 650,000 U.S. citizens visit the Philippines each year. Many people-to-people programs exist between the United States and the Philippines, including Fulbright, International Visitor Leadership Program, and the Kenney-Lugar Youth Exchange and Study program.
The rate or spring constant of a spring is the change in the force it exerts, divided by the change in deflection of the spring. That is, it is the gradient of the force versus deflection curve.
Repeat for six lengths. 7. Repeat steps four through six at a 45 degree angle. The purpose of this experiment is to determine if the angle measurement of a spring has an effect on the spring constant. From this experiment, we determined that the angle at which the force is applied has no effect on the spring constant.
