Hooke's Law

Extension is directly proportional to applied force

Aim of Hooke's Law experiment

Verify that restoring force is proportional to extension

Natural length of spring

Length when no external force is applied

Extension formula

s=l−l0s = l - l_0

Restoring force equals

Weight of the masses

Graph shape if Hooke's Law is valid

Straight line through origin

Slope of FF vs ss graph

Spring constant (kk)

Hooke's Law formula

F=ksF = ks

When does Hooke's Law apply?

Within the elastic limit of the spring

How to avoid parallax error

Read metre stick at eye level

FF vs ss graph must pass through

Origin

Steeper slope means

Stiffer spring

If force doubles, extension...

Doubles

FF in F=ksF = ks

Restoring force (N)

kk in F=ksF = ks
