Hooks law
Accepted Answer
Hooke's Law is a fundamental principle in physics that describes the relationship between the force applied to a spring and the resulting displacement. It states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring is proportional to the amount of extension or compression. This is represented by the equation: F = -kx, where F is the force, k is the spring constant, and x is the displacement. While Hooke's Law doesn't directly fall under the realm of chemistry, it finds applications in various chemical instruments and apparatus where spring-based mechanisms are used.
