How much energy does a rubber band produce when it is pulled back and release?
When it's released, the rubber band delivers almost as much energy as you had to produce in order to stretch it. The little bit that's missing is the energy that caused the rubber band to get warm as you stretched it.
About how much does a rubber band measure?
In the current golf balls, none.
A stretched rubber band has?
I did a test on this on my engineering. It went up to about 1003.75 grams, or about 2.21 lbs.
Is the elastic property of the rubber band a good example of Hooke's law explain?
Yes, it is, as long as you do not stretch it too much that it permanently deforms. Hooke's law states that extension is proportional to force, as is the elastic band.
Is steel is more elastic then rubber?
No, because rubber stretches then snaps back into place. Spring steel might be as elastic as rubber BUT normal steel is much less elastic than rubber.
What are the properties of rubber bands?
As rubber band is made up from rubber, it possess properties of rubber. main property of rubber is "ELASTICITY" i.e. whenever you stretched rubber or rubber band it gets stretched & when you released it, it will gain it's original size & shape again.

How do you replace a rubber band in a cassette player?
First take it apart to find the "rubber band" or where it was. Remove the broken pieces of the old band (normally called a drive belt)and install a suitable new rubber band. Actually, sometimes this will work for a while. Replacement drive belts are made of a sturdier material than a rubber band and will last longer with less stretching. Your new rubber band will have to provide enought tension to move the drive wheels but not be too tight as to put undue pressure on those components. Replacement belts are cheap but much too varied for shops to stock very many. Some factory inventory of belts degenerate into rubber blobs or pieces while waiting for a buyer. LOL
How much do 50 rubber band aids weigh?

Why do rubber bands last longer in the fridge?
This actually has to do with the very complex way a rubber band behaves. In all things, entropy is usually the boss, meaning, when things are at their most basic broken down state, they tend to last longer. And anything at a higher more complex state will tend to have a much shorter life span. Such is the same for a rubber band, when a rubber band is stretched it causes its polymer chains to become very ordered and it expels thermal energy (heat) thus shortening its life. But when a rubber band is in its relaxed state it is very unordered, and will cool when going from a structured state to a relaxed state. So when a rubber band is put in the refrigerator it makes the polymers even more relaxed, because of the way they behave in the cold. But something to be careful of is immediately stretching the rubber band after being in the fridge. This will cause it to weaken significantly because of the rapid change in the contrast of states.
Can you predict the force needed to stretch the rubber band to 40.0cmwhy or why not?
No. You also need to know the properties of the rubber band - specifically, how much it stretches for every unit of force applied.
How much potential energy does one rubber band possess?
That depends how hard you pull it. For example, if you don't pull it at all, it has zero potential energy. It also depends on the characteristics of the rubber band.
How much does paintballing hurt?
As much as a thick rubber band snap on the back of your neck, except wherever you get hit.
If you work in an office you use it and if you put it in the fridge it last longer what is it?
Rubber bands last longer if you put them in the fridge. "In all things, entropy is usually the boss, meaning, when things are at their most basic broken down state, they tend to last longer.

What is a hunters clip for a horse?
A birth-control device that works pretty much like a rubber band.
How much would a rubber band strectch on the moon?
The same as it does on earth. Low gravity does not affect elasticity
