Question 8

A high-precision force sensor in a robotic joint utilizes an elastic polymer strand of stiffness kkk. During actuation, a variable tensile force FFF is applied to the strand, which stores an elastic strain energy EEE.

Determine the relationship between EEE and FFF in the form E=βFnE = \beta F^nE=βFn, where β\betaβ is a constant expressed in terms of kkk, and state the integer value of nnn.
