Hooke's law states that a linear restoring force may be expressed mathematically by the equation F--k AX .......(0) Where F-restoring force, k = spring constant and Ax - mean displacement from the equilibrium position In terms of applied force, the above equation my be written as mg = k Ax (ii) Where mg is the applied force. In an experiment to verify the validity of the law, the following measurements were made Mass (kg) Weight Displacement (N) (Ax) 0.07 0.6867 0.107 0.09 0.8829 0.136 0.11 1.0791 0.175 0.13 1.2753 0.185 0.15 1.4715 0.205 0.17 1.6677 0.246 0.19 1.8639 0.274 0.21 2.0601 0.306 Using Excel or any other graphing program, plot a suitable graph based on equation (ii) above. Display the equation of best fit on the graph. Save and upload your Excel spreadsheet before you go to Question 2.
