Hooke’s Law Apparatus

Quantitatively demonstrate elasticity with clarity and precision

The Hooke’s Law Apparatus is a complete, classroom-ready experimental system designed to clearly and quantitatively demonstrate the principles of Hooke’s Law. It allows students to explore the direct relationship between applied force and spring extension, turning theory into measurable, hands-on learning.

Engineered for stability, accuracy, and ease of use, the apparatus features a 14-inch metal support rod mounted on a 4.5-inch diameter base, ensuring a secure and stable setup during experiments. The dual-scale ruler (centimeters and inches) slides smoothly along the rod, enabling fast and precise measurements.

A zinc-plated steel spring and weight hanger are mounted on an adjustable collar with crossbar, providing flexibility for a wide range of experimental configurations.

⚙️ Key Features

• 14 in metal support rod with a 4.5 in diameter base for excellent stability

• Adjustable dual-scale ruler (cm and inches) for accurate measurements

• Zinc-plated steel spring for durability and consistent performance

• Adjustable collar with crossbar, allowing precise positioning of components

• Weight hanger included for loading experiments

• Activity guide included, offering structured experiments and instructional support

⚠️ Note:
Slotted weights are required but not included. For optimal results, we recommend the WHST08 set of 8 slotted weights.
