Per NCERT §5.9 eqn 5.16, Hooke's law for an ideal spring states the spring force F_s is which?

AF_s = -k x (restoring)
BF_s = -k x² quadratic
CF_s = k x (along motion)
DF_s = -k / x reciprocal
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: A. F_s = -k x (restoring)
NCERT eqn 5.16: F_s = -kx. Minus sign indicates restoring (toward equilibrium). k is spring constant.
