It contains the force of many fallen Jedi. RIP obi wan.
The stress applied when stretching a rubber band is known as tensile stress. This stress occurs when a material is pulled or stretched by a force acting perpendicular to its surface. It causes the rubber band to deform and elongate as the force is applied.
A rubber band is an elastic material, meaning it can regain its original shape after being stretched. This property is due to the polymer chains within the rubber band being able to rearrange when force is applied and return to their original positions when the force is removed.
a rubber band! lol!
A rubber band
Astretched rubber band has potential energy.
Stretching a rubber band is like moving a brick from the floor to the table top. To get it there, you have to apply a force (to overcome gravity) for a certain distance (the height of the table). The gravitation potential energy is equal to the force times the distance.The rubber band is a little different, as the force increases the more you stretch it - but it is storing potential energy just the same. It's called elastic potential energy.
When a rubber band is stretched, it possesses potential energy. This potential energy is stored in the rubber band due to its stretched position, and it can be released when the rubber band is allowed to return to its original, unstretched state.

When a rubber band is stretched, it has potential energy. Any type of stored energy is known as potential energy.
That is Potential energy
