Hooke's Law (Edexcel A-Level Further Mathematics): Flashcards

$T = \frac{\lambda x}{l}$

Tension (N)

Modulus of elasticity (N)

Extension (m)

Natural length (m)

Length when unstretched and not under tension

$x = \text{stretched length} - \text{natural length}$

Less stretchy, needs more force for same extension

Within the elastic limit

Newtons (N)
