FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Back
Hooke's Law states that the force exerted by a spring is directly proportional to the amount it is stretched or compressed, as long as the elastic limit is not exceeded.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to a material when it reaches its elastic limit?
Back
When a material reaches its elastic limit, it can no longer return to its original shape after the applied force is removed, leading to permanent deformation.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How do you calculate the spring constant (k) using Hooke's Law?
Back
The spring constant (k) can be calculated using the formula k = F/x, where F is the force applied to the spring and x is the displacement from its original length.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the unit of spring constant?
Back
The unit of spring constant is Newtons per meter (N/m).
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
If a spring is stretched by 10 cm with a force of 20 N, what is the spring constant?
Back
The spring constant k = F/x = 20 N / 0.1 m = 200 N/m.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship between force and displacement in Hooke's Law?
Back
The relationship is linear; as the force increases, the displacement increases proportionally until the elastic limit is reached.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the significance of the spring constant in practical applications?
Back
The spring constant indicates how stiff or flexible a spring is; a higher spring constant means a stiffer spring.
