Abstract
For this experiment, we focused on Hookes law. A principle of physics that states that the force needed
to extend or compress a spring by some distance is proportional to that distance is Hookes law. The aim
of this experiment is to study the elastic properties of the spring and the total work done on the spring
when being stretched. To determine the force constant of the spring. To investigate the relationship
between the deforming force and amount the spring stretches. After a successful experiment, we were
able to get the necessary data we need to check whether the theory matches the experiment. We did the
experiment at least twice due to human error and finally we were able to get 4.67% error for table 1A,
0.00% error for table 1B, and errors 4.793% and 0.00% for table 2.
