How to Calculate and Solve for Elastic Constant | Hooke’s Law

The image above represents elastic constant. To calculate elastic constant using Hooke’s law, two essential parameters are needed and these parameters are Force (F) and Extension (e).

The formula for calculating elastic constant:

k = F/e

Where:

k = Elastic Constant
F = Force
e = Extension

Given an example;
Find the elastic constant when the force is 30 and the extension is 6.

This implies that;

F = Force = 30
e = Extension = 6

k = F/e
So, k = 30 / 6
e = 5

Therefore, the elastic constant is 5 Nm-1.
