Robert Hooke studied the uniaxial force required to extend springs and long straight wires and found it to be proportional to ... This linear elastic response has been formalized into the ...

Record each stretching force in N and the corresponding length of the spring. The extension is the new length minus the unloaded length. Figure caption, Graph showing Hooke's Law, force is plotted ...
