Hooke's law states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring is proportional to the distance it is stretched. In 1662, Hooke was given the role of Curator of Experiments for the Royal ...

Hooke, Hooke's Law: Index: Robert Hooke studied the uniaxial force required to extend springs and long straight wires and found it to be proportional to the extension of the device under test. He ...

Hooke’s law is incredibly important in engineering but, again, most students will not become engineers or rely on a knowledge of the properties of springs, unless they get themselves a job in a ...

Hooke’s Law is obeyed up to the limit of proportionality. Beyond this point, stretching force and extension are no longer directly proportional and the graph begins to curve.

The image set to be hung at IOP shows Hooke holding a quill and a book in his right hand and a spring in his left. The spring represents one of Hooke's defining successes -- Hooke's law of elasticity.

Hooke’s Law Here is a spring mounted vertically. […] Save. Save. This was a great question from my algebra-based physics course (rephrased just a bit) "Where does Hooke's ...

Last Updated: 7/27/18. Teaching Standard: This module introduces a setup for calculating the Spring Constant using Hooke’s Law. In this setup, the Raspberry Pi is interfaced with an Ultrasonic Sensor ...

I blame Destin and his interesting sling shot video. Watch it. In this video, he claims that rubber bands do not act like springs. By "acting like springs" of course he means Hooke's law. This ...
