Elastic objects are used in everyday's life.. and here are some examples that may help :) : Trampolines
Garage Door
Micetraps
Matresses
The spring found in ballpoint pens
Hooke's law apparatus
Rubber bands
Our elbows (The muscular contractions and relaxtions)
:D ..Hope it's helpful as much !

What sentence can you use for elastic potential energy?
elastic potential energy is stored by the forces within a disorted elastic object
Compressed springs are what kind of energy?
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
What energy does a bow and arrow use?
when you are setting up your bow and arrow you are setting the positionand condition, to shot the arrow, causing potential energy but when you let the bow go the potential changes into knitec energy because the bow now has mass and speed.
What are the two basic types of energy?
There are two main types of energy which is kinetic and potential energy.. Kinetic energy is an energy associated with motion.. while the potential energy is an energy stored with the position of an object, or its chemical composition.
Who discovered elastic potential energy?
The term potential energy was coined by the 19th century Scottish engineer and physicist William Rankine,[2][3] although it has links to Greek philosopher Aristotle's concept of potentiality.
What are some sporting objects that use elastic potential energy?
Balls, bats and racquets.
What sentence can you use for elastic potential energy?
elastic potential energy is stored by the forces within a disorted elastic object
What piece of apparatus would you use to change elastic potential energy into kinetic energy?
Movement
Compressed springs are what kind of energy?
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
What forces does a spring use?
Springs make use of elastic energy. It is a type of potential energy and is largely governed by Hooke's Law.
How can you determine a objects potential energery?
If you mean gravitational potential energy, you use the formula PE = mgh (potential energy = mass x gravity x height).
Most energy use can be seen in the form of what?
Most energy use can be seen in the form of what motion or sound. There are different forms of energy which include chemical, potential, elastic and nuclear among others.
What energy does a bow and arrow use?
when you are setting up your bow and arrow you are setting the positionand condition, to shot the arrow, causing potential energy but when you let the bow go the potential changes into knitec energy because the bow now has mass and speed.
Potential energy is energy due to?
Potential energy is the energy that is waiting to be use. Such as when a boulder is sitting on top of a hill. The boulder has potential energy because it can be pushed down the hill. sara

How are objects able to gain energy as well as use it?
An object gains energy when it is either heated or pushed. If pushed vertically, it gains gravitational potential energy. If pushed horizontally, it gains kinetic energy.
