Want this question answered?
a spring possesses elastic potential energy when compressed or stretched.
The potential energy of a spring is defined by this equation: U=.5kx2 U= potential energy (in joules) k= the spring constant x= the displacement of the spring from equilibrium. (the amount that the spring is stretched or compressed) This equation tells us that as a spring is compressed by a distance x, the potential energy increases proportionately to x2
Yes.

Elastic potential energy
Yes.
True
a compressed spring
This is known as elastic energy. It is a type of potential energy.
Elastic force is a force which you are acting on it while elastic potential energy is produced when the spring is being compressed or stretched
Elastic potential energy can be found in a spring, in a rubber band, and in a pogo stick
.88
Elastic energy, for example, a stretched spring.
Elastic force. It is a reaction which comes into the scene due to elastic nature of the material of the spring.
