Question [CLICK ON ANY CHOICE TO KNOW THE RIGHT ANSWER]
Hooke’s law states that the extension of a spring is proportional to ____
A
Length of the spring
B
Spring constant
C
Elastic potential energy
D
Force applied
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Hooke’s Law states that the force needed to compress or extend a spring is directly proportional to the distance you stretch it. As an equation, Hooke’s Law can be represented as F = kx, where F is the force we apply, k is the spring constant, and x is the extension of the material (typically in meters).

Detailed explanation-2: -Mathematically, Hooke’s law states that the applied force F equals a constant k times the displacement or change in length x, or F = kx.
