Question

 A student measures the length of a spring. She then attaches different weights to the spring. She measures the length of the spring for each weight.
The table shows her results.

$
\begin{array}{|c|c|}
\hline \text { weight } / \mathrm{N} & \text { length } / \mathrm{mm} \\
\hline 0 & 520 \\
1.0 & 524 \\
2.0 & 528 \\
3.0 & 533 \\
4.0 & 537 \\
5.0 & 540 \\
\hline
\end{array}
