The phrase "state of Hooke's Law" refers to the level or condition of adherence to Hooke's Law, which states that the force needed to extend or compress a spring is directly proportional to the distance it is stretched or compressed.
If the state of Hooke's Law is low, it means that the law is not being followed or applied accurately. This could mean that there is a lack of linearity between the force and displacement of a spring, potentially caused by factors such as material fatigue, deformation, or overstretching.
In terms of materials, if a spring or object made of an elastic material is not exhibiting a linear response to applied forces, it is considered to have a low state of Hooke's Law.
