Want this question answered?
Bunjee jumping Catapult Hope this helps :) If you want to know what elastic potential energy is, I suggest you take a look at this: http://www.bbc.co.uk/schools/gcsebitesize/science/add_aqa/forces/forceselasticityrev1.shtml
a tightly packed spring, it will act like a rubber band from a rubber band gun when you let go. that is how i remember ELASTIC potential. rubber bands are like elastic.
its a rubber band used for hair
it is elastic potential energy
Rubber Band
yes.......................it is a stretchy elastic rubber band
If you take your index finger and your thumb you can put them in the same rubber band and you can use it as a catapult.
If a rubber band is stretched, it has elastic energy.
it will because of the rubber band. (if homemade) the rubber band will stretch farther and when released it will launch the object farther.
You can treat the rubber band as a spring. Ve=1/2*k*x2Where Ve is the elastic potential energy stored in the rubber band, k is the spring constant for the rubber band (can be calculated experimentally), and x is the distance the rubber band is stretched.
Stretch the rubber band.
they release energy because its like a rubber band being stretched then being released Think of it as a rubber band not exacltly
To make a catapult, a rubber band and a small stick that is V-shaped is required. The rubber band should then be tied on either side of the V-shaped stick to make the catapult.
