elestic limit.
If the force (push or pull) on a spring is doubled and the extension is tripled does this obey Hookes Law
No, they have to be equal so double and double.
If the force is equal to the extension does this obey Hookes Law
Yes
When the force is equal to the extension this obeys Hooke’s Law. There is a two word name for this L—– R——
Linear Relationship
If the spring starts at 5cm and is extended by 2cm and 5 N force is applied is this a linear relationship.
No, the change in force and extension need to be equal
