A student concludes that the extension of a spring is directly proportional to the force applied to it.

A line graph showing the relationship between Force and Extension. The x-axis is labeled 'Force in N' and ranges from 0.0 to 6.0. The y-axis is labeled 'Extension in mm' and ranges from 0.0 to 25.0. A straight line is drawn through the origin (0, 0) and two data points marked with 'x' at (1.0, 3.5) and (2.0, 7.0).
