    This experiment aims to determine the spring constant of two springs by measuring the extension of each spring when different masses are added. The apparatus includes springs, masses, a ruler, and indicators. Students take measurements of the initial and extended lengths of each spring for various loads and calculate the average extension. They then plot graphs of force versus extension and calculate the spring constants to identify which spring is harder based on the numerical value.

    Experiment 1

    Title: Hooke’s Law


    Objective: To determine the spring constant

    Apparatus:
    1. Retort stand
    2. Clamp
    3. Springs
    4. Slot mass
    5. Ruler
    6. Needles and tape (indicator)

    Procedure
    1. Set up the experiment based on the given apparatus.
    2. Measure the initial reading of the spring with mass hanger, lo. Record the data.
    3. Put a slot of mass m on the hanger and record the reading on indicator, l.
    The weight W = mg.
    4. Repeat step 3 for another eight values of m.

    Data
    Spring A:
    Initial reading, lo =

    Average
    Mass, m Reading due to load, l spring
    extension, x
    Reading #1 Reading #2 Reading #3
    Spring B:
    Initial reading, lo =

    Average
    Mass, m Reading due to load, l spring
    extension, x
    Reading #1 Reading #2 Reading #3

    Analysis:
    1. Plot the graph of the restoring force, F versus extension x, for both springs in one
    graph.
    2. Calculate the spring constants for both springs.
    3. Which spring is harder? Discuss Briefly, relate your discussion with the value of
    Spring Constant.
    4. Provide examples/applications of Hooke’s Law in your everyday life activity.
