-Hooke's Law of simple harmonic motion can be expressed as spring force = -(spring constant x displacement). Spring force always pushes or pulls a mass towards its original equilibrium position, and as such, is referred to as a restoring force. Hooke's Law describes the relationship of the restoring force as being directly proportional to the displacement of the mass.
