Hooke’s Law Set Introduction PASCO’s ME-9827 Hooke's Law Apparatus allows students to investigate the relationship between the force applied to a spring and the amount the spring stretches. Its rugged base and brilliant stretch indicator will provide years of use in the physics classroom. In addition, it includes three different springs of varying stiffness. Each spring has identical length and diameter, but the spring constant varies between 4 N/m and 96 N/m.
Hooke’s Law Set Experiment: Discovering Hooke's Law 1. Choose the increments of mass to be used in the experiment. Keep the spring constant in mind when making this choice. The different springs in the set have spring constants of approximately 4 N/m, 8 N/m, and 96 N/m. 2. Connect the mass hanger to the bottom of the stretch indicator and place the first mass increment on the hanger. Record the stretch of the spring and the weight of the hanging mass. Don't forget to include the mass of the hanger.
