Correct Answer: Hooke's Law


Solution : The correct option is Hooke's Law.

The spring balancing is based on Hooke's Law, which asserts that the force required to extend or compress a spring is proportionate to the distance. In other words, the force supplied to the spring is proportional to the spring's displacement from its equilibrium or resting state. In spring balances, this technique is used to estimate the force or weight of an item by examining the amount of spring deformation it creates.
