A spring has a spring constant of 330 N/m. How far is the spring compressed if 150 N of force are used?
(a)
A force of 470 N is applied to stretch a spring which has a spring constant, k=1100 N/m. How much does the spring stretch past its free length?

Which statement most accurately represents Hooke's Law?
Extension of a spring is proportional to the force applied.
Extension of a spring is proportional to the number of coils.
Extension of a spring is inversely proportional to the force applied.
Thickness of a spring wire is proportional to the force applied.
Spring constant is measured in
