Under a constant force, the spring shows immediately step-like deformation, remaining at a constant value as long as the force is applied. When applying forces of differing strength to the spring, it can be observed in all cases: The resulting deflection is proportional to the force applied. The proportionality factor corresponds to the rigidity of the spring, i. e., to the spring constant.
