1. Which of the following best describes Hooke's Law?
Force is directly proportional to mass.
Force is directly proportional to displacement.
Force is inversely proportional to displacement.
Force is proportional to the square of displacement.
2. What is the unit of the spring constant (k)?

Newtons per meter (N/m)
Meters (m)
3. The potential energy stored in a spring is also known as potential energy.
4. According to Hooke's Law, the restoring force of a spring is always directed to the displacement.
5. A spring has a spring constant of 200 N/m. If it is stretched by 0.15 m, what is the force exerted by the spring?
6. Observe the image below. Describe the relationship between the applied force and the spring's extension based on Hooke's Law.

7. Calculate the potential energy stored in the spring from question 5.
8. A spring stores 15 J of potential energy when compressed by 0.2 m. What is the spring constant of this spring?
9. If a spring is stretched beyond its elastic limit, Hooke's Law no longer applies.
True
False
