Hooke's Law Formula
Hooke's Law states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance scales linearly with respect to that distance.
$$ F = -kx $$
- F: Restoring Force (N) - usually negative, but magnitude is often used.
- k: Spring Constant (N/m)
- x: Displacement form equilibrium (m)
