(N/A) Hooke's law states that for small deformations,the stress applied to a material is directly proportional to the strain produced in it.
Mathematically,it is expressed as:
$\text{Stress} \propto \text{Strain}$
$\text{Stress} = k \times \text{Strain}$
Where $k$ is a constant of proportionality known as the modulus of elasticity.
