Find out the effective spring constant of each protein


i) Compare the root-mean-square end-to-end distance (the rest length) of spectrin (that is, an actin cross-linking protein), actin and microtubules 1000 nm in contour length. Employ l = 15, 15 x 103 and 2 x 106 nm for spectrin, actin and microtubules, correspondingly. Temperature is around 300 K.

Find out the effective spring constant of each protein?

Find out the range of extensions past the rest length you would anticipate this spring constant to remain linear?
