- Hookes Law
- Extension is directly proportional to the force applied.
- The limit of proportionality is not exceeded.
- Equation- F=kXe
- F= force applied Newton N
- k=spring constant of spring in N
- Extension is directly proportional to the force applied.
- e- extension in metres M
- Stiffer a spring, greater its spring constant.
- Elastic object is stretched, work is done. Stored as elastic potential energy.
- When force is removed, this stored energy is released.
