Answer Explanation:

SPRING STIFFNESS :The stiffness of a body is a measure of resistance offered by an elastic body to deformation.it is denoted by K every object has some stiffness for spring the spring stiffness is the force required to cause unit deflection

DAMPING CONSTANT: the damping constant is a number decided by manufacturer that describes the material property. Damping is an influence within an oscillatory system that has the effect of restricting its oscillation
