What does Hooke's Law state?

the extension of a spring is unrelated to the force applied to it

the extension of a spring is proportional to the square of the force applied to it

What is the relationship between force and extension according to Hooke's Law?

force = spring constant - extension

force = spring constant + extension

force = spring constant x extension

force = spring constant / extension
