Hmm.. i'll look into that with the equation above(k=C=constant) F = (k*T*x)L could i take out T and L as they are constant? so F=k*x? is that reasonable or do i have to say F = C*k*x where c = T/L ? Because I'm saying that in the experiment the length of the rubber band was same all the time...

Yea i know that i would have to take into account that there are multiple polymers in a rubber band, i just not some research backing me up on the experiment, i can't seem to find anything on the internet that states anything about the relationship of rubber bands being linera or what sort of...

Ahhh, i realized that i had force on the x axis, so i was calculating x/F so 1/k, when i switched the axis it worked. Also i had another question, can i apply the formula for polymers F = (k*T*x)/L where t= temperature, x = length stretched, L = length of polymer, as rubber bands are made out of...

Hey I am doing an experiment, checking how the spring constant of a rubber band relates to the spring constant of rubber bands in parallel. I calculated the gradient of a F vs x, graph i got a -0.0853 for the first rubber band, -0.0791 & -0.088 for the 2nd and the 3rd. Then i did them in...

Hey I am doing a practical on the spring constant of a rubber band, we have studied hooke's law and from that found that the spring constant of a spring is well F = -kx so F is proportional to x. While i did the same experiment with a rubber band, hung it on a clamp connected to a retort...
