Hooke's law states that the deformation of an object is proportional to the force causing the deformation. The formula is F=kx, where F is the force, k is the spring constant, and x is the deformation. Hooke's law applies to materials undergoing stretching, compressing, squeezing, bending or twisting. In aircraft and engine maintenance, Hooke's law is relevant to the elasticity of wings and suspension wheels experiencing forces.

-‐Hooke’s
law,
law
of
elasticity
discovered
by
the
English
scientist
Robert
Hooke
in
1660,
which
states
that,
for
relatively
small
deformations
of
an
object,
the
displacement
or
size
of
the
deformation
is
directly
proportional
to
the
deforming
force
or
load.
Under
these
conditions
the
object
returns
to
its
original
shape
and
size
upon
removal
of
the
load.

How
are
stretching,
compressing,
squeezing,
bending
or
twisting
applied
in
the
Principle
of
Hooke's
Law?
-‐The
deforming
force
is
applied
through
compression,
stretching,
squeezing,
twisting
or
bending
a
solid.
Hooke’s
law
states
that
the
applied
force
is
equal
to
a
constant
times
the
change
in
length
or
displacement.

Explain
in
what
aspect
of
the
AIRCRAFT
or
Engine
Maintenance
is
Hooke's
Law
applied.
-‐Hooke’s
Law
can
be
applied
in
the
suspension
wheel
of
an
aircraft.
It
can
also
be
applied
in
the
elasticity
of
an
aircraft’s
wings
due
to
its
length.
Any
object
that
can
be
deformed
like
a
spring
can
be
explained
through
Hooke’s
Law.
