Apparatus for Demonstrating Hooke's law (Determination of Elasticity Constant)
Product Code : SCL-PLE-12349
The Apparatus for Demonstrating Hooke's law (SKU SCL-PLE-12349) is a Hooke's law apparatus for finding the spring constant, the elasticity constant of a spiral spring. It combines a 700 mm stand with a 10 mm metal rod, spiral springs, a box of ten 10-50 g weights, a measuring strip and a digital stopwatch. JaincoLab supplies it for school and college practicals on elasticity, extension and spring oscillations.
Specifications
The apparatus stands 700 mm high on a metal base with a vertical 10 mm rod and an insulating head rod, and is supplied with spiral springs of 32.5 x 13.5 mm (L x D), a box of 10 metal weights of 10-50 g, a 1.5-2 m measuring strip and a digital stopwatch.

Applications of the Hooke's law apparatus
The apparatus is used in elasticity practicals where weights are added to a hanging spring and the extension is measured, so that students can plot force against extension and find the spring constant from the gradient.
- Verifying Hooke's law by measuring spring extension against load
- Determining the elasticity constant (spring constant) of a spiral spring
- Timing spring-mass oscillations with the digital stopwatch
- Comparing springs connected in series or in parallel
- Elasticity practicals in secondary-school and junior college physics
