Rubber bands typically stretch more before breaking compared to string, so they can hold more weight. However, the exact weight capacity depends on the specific type and thickness of the rubber band and string being used.
Using a rubber band instead of a string on a mousetrap car can be more efficient because it provides more energy due to its elasticity. The rubber band can store more potential energy when it is wound up, leading to a more powerful release and better performance for the car.
A rubber band is generally able to hold more weight before breaking compared to a string of the same thickness. This is because rubber bands have elasticity, allowing them to stretch and distribute the weight more evenly. Strings tend to be more rigid and can break more easily under tension.
You can change the vibration speed of a string or rubber band by adjusting the tension in the material or by changing its mass. Increasing tension or reducing mass typically increases the vibration speed, while decreasing tension or increasing mass typically decreases the vibration speed.
It depends on the rubber band if is a small rubber band then it will go about 20'and if it is an bigger rubber band then it will go about 35' but it depends on the rubber band and the way you shoot the rubber band

A relaxed rubber band seems like it should expand when heated but in fact it will contract due to the increase in the tension of the rubber band. The force of tension in a rubber band can be modeled by Hooke's Law:F = -kxwhere k the spring constant is directly proportional to the temperature. According to Hooke's law a stretched rubber band should have an increase in tension when heated. However a stretched rubber band cannot contract until its let go and by Hooke's law there is no tension on a relaxed spring so how can there can be any contraction? Well, tension is derived from the change in Entropy by heating the rubber band. Entropy is a way of measuring the amount of 'disorder' in a system. The rubber band can be looked as a string of molecules. So when the string is all laid out it is has low 'disorder'. If the string is all balled up it has high 'disorder'. So if rubber band is heated the Entropy increases which pulls the string of molecules into a ball. This increase the tension in a relaxed rubber band which causes it to contracts it.
You can change the vibration speed of a string or rubber band by adjusting the tension in the material or by changing its mass. Increasing tension or reducing mass typically increases the vibration speed, while decreasing tension or increasing mass typically decreases the vibration speed.
"Sure, why not? Crafts can be made using anything. These rubber bands can be decorated by markers, beads, threads of string, and other household items."

A rubber band is an insulator as it does not allow electrons to pss through it
a rubber band is still rubber because if u stretch it it wont change
