Hooke’s Law Laboratory Purpose The objective of this lab is to show that the response of a spring when an external agent changes its equilibrium length by x can be described by Hooke’s Law, F = -kx. Here F is the restoring .
force or the force exerted by the spring on the external agent and k is a proportionality constant characteristic of the “stiffness” of the spring and is often referred to as the spring constant. We will also study the response of springs when they are connected in series and in parallel. Materials Yours to complete Procedure 1. Install a table rod with a rod clamp near its top. Suspend a helical spring from the clamp with the large end up. Figure 1. Laboratory Setup
2. Attach a 50 g weight hook with a 50 g slot mass on it to the spring. Record the initial mass of 100 g as m1. The parameter m will represent the total mass on the spring. 3. Place the meter stick vertically alongside the hanging mass. Measure the elongation of the spring and record it as x1. Always be sure to measure starting at the same place, either on the table or on the clamp. 4. Add a 50 g slot mass to the hook and record m2 (150 g). Read the meter stick and record x2. Repeat, finding x3 , x4 , x5 , and x6 with total masses 200 g, 250 g, 300 g, and 350 g. Record all the masses and elongations on the form provided (ie. Create an appropriate label).

5. Repeat step’s 1-4 for your second spring. 6. Repeat step’s 1-4 for both springs in parallel. Figure 3. Two springs in parallel
7. Repeat step’s 1-4 for both springs in series. Figure 4. Two springs in series

Analysis 1. Convert all masses to Newtons and all meter stick readings to meters. 2. Plot all the data on the graph paper (using excel). F will be plotted in the vertical direction, while x will be plotted in the horizontal direction. Label the axes of your graph and include units. 3. Draw a single "best fit" line through all the data points. 4. Measure the "rise over run" (the slope) of this line (equations from treadline). This is your experimental value for the spring constant. In what units should k be reported? 5. What was the correlation value? Conclusions 1. Write down your general conclusions for this experiment. These conclusions should include the value of the spring constant k and an estimate of its % error (Mr. Warren will provide to you the accepted k value for each spring). 2. Did your plotted data form all straight lines? Does the data from another shape, perhaps a parabola? Explain for each graph. 3. If a graph was not a straight line, what does this tell you about the spring(s)? 4. Include sources of error for the lab. 5. Include ways to improve the lab.
NOTE: Lab report should be completed using excel and Microsoft word!
