Introduction

PASCO’s ME-9827 Hooke's Law Apparatus allows students to

investigate the relationship between the force applied to a spring and

the amount the spring stretches. Its rugged base and brilliant stretch

indicator will provide years of use in the physics classroom. In

addition, it includes three different springs of varying stiffness. Each

spring has identical length and diameter, but the spring constant varies

between 4 N/m and 96 N/m. Three of each spring type are included for

a total of nine springs.

Equipment Assembly

The stand comes fully assembled, including the transparent scale. To

ready the unit for use, perform the following:

1. Hang the desired spring

from the notch on the

support arm. (Figure 1).

2. Connect the Stretch

Indicator to the bottom of

the spring.

3. Align zero on the sliding

transparent scale with the

Stretch Indicator (Figure 1).

4. Connect a mass hanger

to the bottom of the

Stretch Indicator. To

connect the mass hanger,

unclip the bottom wire

clamp and slide the

clamp through the slit on

the hanger (Figure 2).

The complete setup is

shown on the next page.

Note: You may need to

adjust the clamp on the

support rod until the

indicator reading falls

at exactly zero. Always

take your reading from

the bottom edge of the

indicator.

Experiment: Discovering Hooke's Law

1. Choose the increments of mass to be used in the experiment. Keep the

spring constant in mind when making this choice. The different

springs in the set have spring constants of approximately 4 N/m,

8 N/m, and 96 N/m.

2. Connect the mass hanger to

the bottom of the stretch

indicator and place the first

mass increment on the

hanger. Record the stretch of

the spring and the weight of

the hanging mass. Don't

forget to include the mass of

the hanger.

3. Add five more increments of

mass, each time recording the

stretch of the spring and the

weight of the hanging mass.

4. Repeat steps 2-3 for a

different spring.

5. In DataStudio, create a graph

with “Force” on the vertical

axis and “Stretch” on the

horizontal axis. For more

details, see the instructions in

Appendix B.

6. Using y = mx + b, write an equation for each of the lines. Make

sure to include appropriate variable, numbers, and units in the

equation.

7. The slope of the Force vs. Stretch graph in known as the spring

constant or rate. The vertical intercept represents the amount of

force needed to begin stretching the spring and is also known as the

initial tension. (See “Sample Data” on the next page.)

Figure 3: Setup

CAUTION: Stretching

the spring more than

twice its resting length

can damage the spring.

The maximum allowable

force for each spring is

listed under Specifica-

tions in Appendix A.

Test your mass choice

prior to trying the exper-

iment with students.

Appendix B: Plotting Data in DataStudio

The following instructions are provided for new users or those unfamiliar with DataStudio.

The following instructions explain how to create an x-y graph and/or calculate statistics on

previously collected data.

1. Open DataStudio. When the Welcome to DataStudio window opens, select “Enter Data.” An

editable table and Graph display open.

2. On the main toolbar, click the Summary button.

3. In the Data list, double click on the data icon to open the Data Properties dialog.

4. In the Data Properties dialog, do the following:

a) Enter a name for your experiment in the Name box.

b) Click on the X tab and enter the variable name “Stretch” to label the x axis. Enter the

units for stretch (mm or m).

c) Click on the Y tab and enter the variable name “Force” to label the y axis. Enter the

units for force (N). Click OK.

5. In the Editable data table, enter your values for force and stretch. The data values

automatically plot in the graph to the right.

6. On the graph toolbar, click the Curve Fit button and select “Linear Fit.” Slope, intercept,

correlation, and standard deviation values appear in a box on your display.
