What is a elastic force?

Elastic force is forces compressed when forces are stretched


What is the formula to find the spring constant?

F = - k x In this equation, x is the distance that the spring has been stretched or compressed away from its equilibrium position F is the restoring force exerted by the spring. k is the spring constant.


What is elastic force?

Elastic force is when something is being stretched or compressed.


Can force change volume?

If the matter can be compressed into a denser material by this force, yes.


Where is the strongest force exerted by scissors blades to cut through a piece of material?

the cutting edges nearest the handles


What are the effects of force exerted on different materials?

it moves the material to different directions.


What happens to a springs force if you stretch it more?

It may loose its elastic nature.


What is the difference between elastic force and elastic potential energy?

Elastic force is a force which you are acting on it while elastic potential energy is produced when the spring is being compressed or stretched


How do you find out how long a spring has stretched?

You can find out how long a spring has been stretched/compressed by knowing it's elastic constant and the force the spring is exerting trying to go back to it's original shape. F=K*x (Moore's law) F is the force exerted by the spring. K is the elastic constant. X is the displacement of the end of the spring from it's normal position. You want to find x, x = F/K


Can you stretch springs by pushing on them?

Springs are great for absorbing energy. The spring force is negative when the spring is stretched and positive when it is compressed or pushed.


Can you stretch a spring by pushing on them?

Springs are great for absorbing energy. The spring force is negative when the spring is stretched and positive when it is compressed or pushed.


What is potential energy called that is associated with objects that can be stretched or compressed?

For materials such as rubber I would call it elastic energy. For compressed gases I would just call it mechanical energy-the compressed gas exerts a force which would move a piston against another force, and that constitutes work.
