k is a constant. It is called the âconstant of proportionality , or âconstant of variationâ. Both terms mean the same thing. The terms are interchangeable. The constant of proportionality means that DIVIDING the DISTANCE by the TIME is a CONSTANT value (k, the constant of variation). To solve for k, divide each side of the equation by the variable time:
I was then looking through my revsion notes and the equation F=-KX came up. x is the displacement of the spring's end from its equilibrium position (a distance, in SI units: meters); k is a constant called the rate or spring constant (in SI units: N/m or kg/s2).
