Who is Hooke's law named after?
Hooke's law is named after 17th-century British physicist Robert Hooke.
What does Hooke's law state?
What does Hooke's law state?
Hooke's law states that the force (F) needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance (x) scales linearly with respect to that distance—that is, Fs = kx, where k is a constant factor characteristic of the spring (i.e., its stiffness).

Study Notes
Hooke's Law
- Named after Robert Hooke
- States that stress is proportional to strain within the proportional limit of an object
- First stated by Robert Hooke in the 17th century
- Holds in situations involving springs, as well as in the deformation of solid objects
Equation for Hooke's Law
- F = -kx, where F is the force, k is the spring constant, and x is the displacement
