Hello I need some help with this Hookes Law assignment. Here is all the info along with a couple questions I need help answering for this assignment.

Purpose: Confirm Hooke's Law

URL:

https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/hookes-law/latest/hookes-law en.html

Procedure: Part A

Launch the simulation and select Intro.

2. Set the Applied Force to 50 N.

3. Set the Spring Constant to 100 N/m.

4. Record Displacement.

5. Add 200 N/m to the Spring Constant.

6. Record Displacement.

7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 twice more.

Procedure: Part B

1. Launch the simulation and select Intro.

2. Set the Applied Force to 20 N.

3. Set the Spring Constant to 100 N/m.

4. Record Displacement.

5. Add 15 N to the Applied Force.

6. Record Displacement.

7. Repeat steps 5 and 6 twice more.

Questions to answer:

Analysis

1.How does the Spring Constant affect the Displacement?

2.What does the value of Spring Constant indicate about the spring?

3. How does the Applied Force affect the Displacement?

4.Graph Applied Force v Displacement from Part B

5.Calculate the Spring Constant using the slope of the graph.

6.Calculate the percent error in the calculated Spring Constant.

Conclusion: Do the results confirm Hooke's Law? Explain.

Below I have provided you a graph of both Part A and Part B to help you understand better. If you could help me out that would be great!
