Hooke's Law states that within the elastic limit, the stress applied to a material is directly proportional to the strain produced. Mathematically,
E stands for the modulus of elasticity also called Young's modulus in case of linear deformation.
The Hooke's Law defines the elastic behaviour of materials, determines its elastic limit and helps in material selection for construction and manufacturing. It is used to design springs and elastic components in machines. Hook's law is applicable for the solids within their elastic limit.
Hooke's law for a spring and other elastic material is shown as:F is the force applied on the mat

Yes, there are many numerical problems in class 11 Physics. All important formulas must be on figure tips.
Class 11 Physics Chapter 11 is Thermodynamics. It is one of the most important topic in Physics.
There are three main processes Isothermal, adiabatic and cyclic process. In isothermal, the system is thermally conductive and the temperature remains constant. In adiabatic process, the system is thermally isolated and there is no change in heat temperature. The system returns to its initial stage in the cyclic process.
