Question

Hooke's law establishes the relationship between which two physical quantities in elastic materials?

• A. Pressure and volume
• B. Force and velocity
• C. Stress and strain
• D. Temperature and resistance

Answer 1

Answer:

C. Stress and strain

Hooke's law establishes the relationship between stress and strain. Hooke's Law for linear springs in terms of stress and strain states that the force required to expand or contract a spring by some distance estimates linearly to the distance. Hooke's Law equations prove that the force (F) required to expand or contract a spring by some distance has a linear measure to the distance
