What energy has a squashed spring got?
A squashed spring has potential energy stored in it. When the spring is released, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the spring expands.
Spring energy is converted into what energy?
It is converted into "movement" if something is placed on the spring.
How does the process of energy transformation occur in a spring, and can you explain how it happens?
When a spring is compressed or stretched, potential energy is stored in the spring. When the spring is released, this potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy as the spring moves. This energy transformation happens because the stored potential energy in the spring is converted into the motion of the spring as it returns to its original shape.
How does energy transform in a spring and can you explain this process in detail?
When a spring is compressed or stretched, potential energy is stored in the spring. This potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy when the spring is released and returns to its original shape. The process of energy transformation in a spring involves the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy as the spring moves back and forth.
What sort of energy is in the compressed spring?
Spring potential energy.
What type of energy does a compressed spring have?
A compressed spring has potential energy stored in the form of elastic potential energy. When the spring is released, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the spring returns to its original shape.
Is the energy stored in a compressed spring called kinetic energy?
No, the energy stored in a compressed spring is called potential energy, specifically elastic potential energy. When the spring is released, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the spring moves and accelerates.
What energy is used when you stretch a spring?
When you stretch a spring, the energy stored is potential energy from the work done to stretch the spring. This potential energy is then converted into kinetic energy when the spring is released and returns to its original position.
What is the energy transfer for a spring?
When a spring is compressed or stretched, energy is stored in the form of potential energy. This potential energy is then converted into kinetic energy when the spring is released, causing the spring to oscillate back and forth. Overall, energy is transferred between potential and kinetic forms in a spring system.
What is an example for energy transferring to elastic energy?
An example of energy transferring to elastic energy is when a spring is compressed. When a force is applied to compress the spring, potential energy is stored in the spring as elastic potential energy. This energy can be released when the spring returns to its original shape.
Where is there energy when you stretch a spring?
When you stretch a spring, the energy is stored as potential energy in the form of elastic potential energy. This potential energy is stored in the spring due to the deformation of its shape, and it is released when the spring returns to its original position.
What is energy stored in a spring called?
The energy stored in a spring is called potential energy. This potential energy is stored when the spring is compressed or stretched, and it can be released as kinetic energy when the spring is allowed to return to its natural position.
