    (a) The magnitude of the applied force is (0.0001524k) Newton

    (b) Corresponding stress in the steel core = (0.0001524k/area) Newton per meter square

    Explanation:

    (a) From Hookes law of elasticity,

    Force applied = force constant (k) * compression

    compression = 0.006 in = 0.006 * 0.0254 = 0.0001524 meter

    Force applied = k * 0.0001524 = (0.0001524k) Newton

    (b) Stress = Force applied (Newton) / area of steel core (meter square) = (0.0001524k/area) Newton per meter square
