A technician tests a rubber block used in a vibration mount.
The table shows the compression of the block for different applied forces.
| Applied force in N | Compression in mm |
|---|---|
| 0 | 0.0 |
| 100 | 2.0 |
| 200 | 4.0 |
| 300 | 6.0 |
| 400 | 8.5 |
The technician claims that the compression is directly proportional to the applied force for all the results.
Evaluate the technician's claim. Use calculations in your answer.
