Compute the effective spring constant of the molecule

Reference no: EM13271814

A molecule of DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid) is 2.09 µm long. The ends of the molecule become singly ionized: negative on one end, positive on the other. The helical molecule acts like a spring and compresses 1.08% upon becoming charged. Determine the effective spring constant of the molecule.
