Hooke's Law

In 1676 a scientist named Robert Hooke developed a theory, that later became a scientific law. He stated that “The power of any springy body is in the same proportion with the extension.” This is the property of elasticity. Now Hooke’s law was later changed to “The force of any…[etc.]”. because the Power was not right term.

Mathematically speaking, the formula for Hooke’s law is F=ku, where u is the deformation of the elastic body subjected to the force F and k is the spring constant or the ration of the other two variables.

Now as a generic teenager I'm going to twist it:

The commutative property of multiplication states that AB=C is the same as BA=C. This is also true for the above equation. F=ku is the same as F=uk.

The Product of F=uk is Typical Teenage Stupidity.
