If the interatomic spacing in a steel wire is $3.0 \mathring{A}$ and $Y_{\text{steel}} = 20 \times 10^{10} \text{ N/m}^2$, then the force constant is:

  • A
    $6 \times 10^{-2} N/\mathring{A}$
  • B
    $6 \times 10^{-9} N/\mathring{A}$
  • C
    $4 \times 10^{-5} N/\mathring{A}$
  • D
    $6 \times 10^{-5} N/\mathring{A}$
