K = Bending stiffness

F = Force

d = deflection

$k = \frac{ E \times w \times t^3}{4 \times L^3}$

where,

E = young's modulus = 170 Gpa = $170000 N/mm^2$

t = thickness t = 10 $\mu \ m$

w = width w = 2 $\mu \ m$

L = Length L = $50\mu m$

$\therefore K = \frac{170 Gp \times 2 \times (10)^3}{4 \times (50^3)}$

$\therefore K = \frac{0.17 N/ \mu m^2 \times 2 \times 10^3}{4 \times 50^3}$

$\therefore K = \frac{340}{500000} = 6.8 \times 10^{-4}$

$\therefore K = 6.8 \times 10^{-4} N/\mu \ m$
