According to Hooke&rsquo;s law, within elastic limit, Extension propto Load applied. Hence, graph will be linear in nature starting from origin.

Q. Consider the following graphs representing the variation of extension in the length of a wire with the external load within the elastic limit. Choose the correct graph.

According to Hooke’s law, within elastic limit,
Extension $\propto$ Load applied.
Hence, graph will be linear in nature starting from origin.

Q. Consider the following graphs representing the variation of extension in the length of a wire with the external load within the elastic limit. Choose the correct graph.

According to Hooke’s law, within elastic limit, Extension ∝ Load applied. Hence, graph will be linear in nature starting from origin.
