Questions : Experiment -1- Hook’s Law

1- State Hook’s law.

2- What is elasticity?
3- What does a larger spring constant mean?
4- What is the unit of the spring constant?
5- A spring extends elastically by 10 cm when a force of 20 N is applied to it. What force would be
needed to extend the spring by 5 cm?
6- What is the shape of a Force-Extension graph for a spring if it obeys Hooke’s law?
7- What is the spring constant a measure of?
8- What is the name for energy stored by a stretched spring?
9- If there is a negative sign in front of the Hooke's Law equation, what does the force, F,
represent?
10- When the force applied to the spring (stress) is increased, the length of the compliant
spring(strain) will increase, and when the force applied (stress) to the spring continues to
extend (strain increase), the spring will go through multiple stages.
List these stages and then draw the graph of young modulus between the stress and strain
pointing to the stages.
