What is a good hypothesis for the question how will the stretch of the rubber band effect the potential energy created?
If the rubber band stretch increases, then the potential energy will increase. Or: If the rubber band stretch decreases, then the potential energy will decrease.
If you shoot a rubber band how far will it go?
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
What would happen to a rubber band if weight is added to it?
It would stretch, and its tension would increase.
How far can a rubber band be stretched before it breaks?
This depends on the size of the rubber band, the materials and impurities in the rubber band, and the speed at which you stretch it, as well as the conditions that the rubber band has been under.
What are 100 ways to use a rubber band?
i don't know a hundred, but you could make a rubber band gun, and a rubber band ball, or a rubber band chain. just look on youtube for instructions.
Why does a rubber band increase in size when placed in kerosene?
The rubber band increased in size when you soak it in kerosene because it absorbed the kerosene. The kerosene has a higher concentration than the rubber band so the diffusion is going inside.
What would you need to do to a rubber band to increase its elastic potential energy?
Stretch the rubber band.
How can you increase your discharge time?
A thick rubber band

What would happen to a rubber band if weight is added to it?
It would stretch, and its tension would increase.
Is a rubber band organic or inorganic?
a rubber band is organic
Is a rubber band insulator or conductor?
A rubber band is an insulator as it does not allow electrons to pss through it
How long does it take for heat to expand the length a rubber band stretches?
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.
How is a rubber band stretchy if it is rubber?
a rubber band is still rubber because if u stretch it it wont change
Why is rubber-band made of rubber?
A rubber-band is made out of rubber because rubber will make it hold things nice and tight.
How far can a rubber band be stretched before it breaks?
This depends on the size of the rubber band, the materials and impurities in the rubber band, and the speed at which you stretch it, as well as the conditions that the rubber band has been under.
