Hooke's Law describes the relationship between the amount of stretch of a material or object (like a spring) and the force which causes that stretch. Often this is a linear relationship (or at least within a certain range of stretch it remains nearly linear). If you are operating in the linear range, then it can be utilized to determine how much force is being applied, or predict how much some material will stretch, given a known force. see this Hyperphysicslink for more info.

How do you answer hookes law experiment?
Hooke's law of elasticity is an approximation that states that the extension of a spring is in direct proportion with the load applied to it.
What is the birth name of David Hookes?
David Hookes's birth name is David William Hookes.
What does hookes law relate to?
Hooke's Law relates to the elasticity of elastic objects, such as metal springs, and how they stretch in proportion to the force that acts on them.
What kind of energy does a mousetrap car use?
Potential and Kinetic energy, Mechanical energy, and Hookes law.
Why do spring balances show wrong reading after they has been used for a long time?
Its all to do with Hookes law................
Does a spring which is not in its elastic region obey Hookes law?
No, by definition Hooke's law relates to linear elastic only; when outside the elastic region it does not apply.
