Hooke Law Apparatus
Product Code : JA-FMDE-7809
The Hooke Law Apparatus (SKU JA-FMDE-7809) is a complete bench set-up for showing that the extension of a spring is proportional to the load applied to it. This Hooke's law apparatus with mirror scale has a coiled spring, mass hanger and indicator hanging from a hook on a 300 mm rod, a 150 mm adjustable mirror scale in millimetres and a 250 g slotted weight set, all on a wooden base. JaincoLab manufactures it in India for school physics laboratories.
Specifications
The apparatus is mounted on a wooden base with a sturdy 300 mm rod carrying a hook, a coiled spring with mass hanger and indicator, and a 150 mm adjustable mirror scale marked in millimetres to prevent parallax error; a 250 g slotted weight set is supplied.

Experiments with the Hooke's law apparatus with mirror scale
The apparatus is used for the load and extension experiment of secondary and senior secondary physics: slotted weights are added to the hanger, the indicator is read against the mirror scale without parallax, and the readings are plotted to show proportionality and find the spring constant.
- Verifying Hooke's law by plotting load against extension
- Finding the force constant (spring constant) of a helical spring from the graph
- Practising parallax-free reading with a mirror scale
- Comparing the stiffness of different springs on the same stand

Frequently asked questions
What does the Hooke Law Apparatus demonstrate?
It demonstrates that the extension of a spring is proportional to the load applied to it.
How is parallax error avoided?
The indicator is read against a 150 mm adjustable mirror scale marked in millimetres, which removes parallax error.
Are weights included?
Yes. A 250 g slotted weight set is supplied with the apparatus.
