Is a rubber band being stretched and being broken kinetic energy changing to potential energy?

Not really. You are breaking it, so you are simply using your kinetic energy on it. However, using a rubber band like a slingshot is. While the rubber band is tight, it contains potential energy. You transferred your kinetic energy to it as potential energy. When you release the rubber band and it does work such as shooting a wad of paper, that is converting potential energy into kinetic.

What energy is kinetic energy changed to in a car crash?
Potential energy than heat, sound and, of course, there is a loss in potential energy of broken materials...
Is the kelvin temperature of a substance directly proportional to the total kinetic energy of the particles in the substance?
Yes, temperature and kinetic energy are always equal except when going through a phase change, during which temperature stays the same, potential energy increases, and bonds are made/broken. In the case of gas, kinetic energy is equal to temperature unless condensing or depositing.
Why solids will have less energy then the same materials in liquid or gas state?
To convert a material from solid to a liquid, the atoms or molecules - which are held together by chemical bonds - must be broken apart. That is, potential energy must be provided to the atoms or molecules. Similarly, when changing from a liquid to a gas, additional energy needs to be provided.
How do energy and changes in energy change the state of matter?
When heating a substance the substance's molecules gain kinetic energy, this leads to chemical bonds being broken and thus a change of state.
How potential energy occur?
Nothing really causes potential energy as it is merely just energy in storage. For example, water has energy in its chemical bonds, but the potential energy will only be released when the bonds are broken.
Is the energy stored in the bonds between atoms potential or kinetic energy?
It is potential energy. It becomes kinetic when a bond is broken.

Breaking the bonds of ATP molecules to energize your muscle cells to make that fist?
Chemical energy is stored in bonds and when broken becomes changes from potential to kinetic
Will a rubber band give kinetic energy if it is broken?
Yes as long as you have the pendant or item
What can potential energy be broken down into?
Gravitational and Alastic
Snowblower is not blowing snow - I checked the shear pins - ok - what now?
check for stretched or broken auger belt

Is ATP kinetic energy?
Greetings Questioner,The answer is no...but why?ATP contains potential energy. It has the ability to release energy, when one of its bonds to the phosphates is broken, through hydrolysis synthesis. I once read: "ATP transfers energy from exergonic to endergonic processes in the cell" (85).Hope that helped!Sincerely,Nerd 3000
How do you know when one needs a new alternator belt for your car?
If it is broken, cracked, frayed, or stretched so much it cannot be tightened.
What type of bondis broken when liquid water changes to water vapor?
no bonds are broken the compound is changing phase not breaking bonds
Why does engine tilt when changing gears in automatic transmission?
Broken motor mount
During which process are food broken molecules broken down to produce chemical potential energy in the form of ATP?
Cellular respiration
