==Key Stage 3==
===Meaning===
'''Hooke's Law''' states that the [[extension]] of an [[elastic]] [[object]] is [[proportional]] to the [[force]] applied to the [[object]].

===About Hooke's Law===
: '''Hooke's Law''' describes how [[elastic]] [[object]]s behave when a pair of opposing [[force]]s is applied.
: '''Hooke's Law''' is described by the equation: Force = Spring Constant x Extension

===Equation===
<math> F = k \times x </math>
Where:
F = Force applied
k = Spring Constant (stiffness of the elastic object)
x = Extension of the object
