Hooke's Law Spring Set – 5 Non-Proportional Springs

This IEC Hooke's Law spring set contains 5 tension springs with an eye at each end, designed for practical investigations of the relationship between applied load and spring extension. Students can compare the extension of different springs under known loads and investigate Hooke's law and spring stiffness.

The five non-proportional springs have different combinations of coil diameter, length and wire thickness, allowing students to investigate and compare their behaviour under load.
