Pontential energy ;)
I got this in my exam, and the answer is B) releasing a compressed spring as it a transformation from potential to kinetic
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
Let's say you compress the spring. Work (mechanical energy) is required to compress the spring; this energy is stored in the spring and can be recovered (converted to another type of energy) when the spring returns to its normal position.
No the energy stored in a compressed spring is not kinetic energy.
Tap that got squashed.
Pontential energy ;)
It got squashed.
When a ball is squashed, it gains potential energy due to the compression of its material. This potential energy is stored in the form of elastic potential energy, as the ball has the potential to return to its original shape when released.
This is what im trying to find out :/
Flat hat
This is what im trying to find out :/
Its potential energy increases as it regains its shape.
people got squashed and were fed to the lions
When a cow got squashed through a collinder :D (not Really...)
Spring potential energy.
It means you have an extra bounce of energy, you seem particularly happy and energetic.
