Hooke's Law is a principle of physics that states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring by some distance is proportional to that distance. Hooke's law was discovered by the English scientist Robert Hooke in 1660, which states that, for relatively small deformations of an object, the displacement or size of the deformation is directly proportional to the deforming force or load. Hookes law is important because it helps us understand how a stretchy object will behave when it is stretched or compacted. It relates to our everyday lives because without it, we would have a difficult time tweaking shocks on cars. We use cars everyday, and the shocks are what keep the ride smooth.
