The main purpose of this research is

to claim whether the average Force


Constant of the spring satisfies the
gathered data as we mention in the
problem statement. Since the
population is only 4, which is less
than 30, we used the t-test hypothesis
statistical test using the claimed
average Force Constant of the spring
as the null hypothesis. Calculations
were done and as a result, the
claimed average Force Constant of
the spring was accepted because the
computed value is in the accepted
area of the critical value.
The theory of this experiment
explains that Elasticity refers to
a property by which an object
changes its length, shape or size
under the action of a deforming
force and recovers its original
configuration upon the removal
of force.
The average force constant of a
4 N/m spring is 5.25 Newton per
meter when a certain mass is
added to the spring. To test the
truth of this claim, we gathered
the Force Constants every trial of
Hookes Law Experiment. It is
consisting of 4 trials and heres
the following data of the Force
Constants: 5.07, 5.30, 5.33, and
5.25. Is the Force constant of a 4
N/m spring claim true?
A use of an experiment, Hookes
Law Experiment, in Physics11
Laboratory was used to obtain the
data. Given the experiment paper,
we gathered the specific date
needed from this study. The
experiment was performed by the
physics11 students. This allows us
to use a performed experiment and
not predicted values to ensure that
we really understand what this is all
about.
Hookes Law Hypothesis Testing
Math 30-5/b2
The average force constant of
the spring is less than the actual
value making the result of the
experiment with a little bit of
error.

Looking at the table, we can see that
the t-value is less than 0.1, therefore
