What is spring constant of an elastic material?

Spring constant of an elastic material is the force applied per unit extension.


How potential energy arises an elastic spring?

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.


What kinds of energy does a spring have?

a spring possesses elastic potential energy when compressed or stretched.


What is energy in spring?

Elastic potential energy


How does the elastic potential energy in a mass spring system change if the displacement of the mass is doubled?

The elastic potential energy (EEp) of the spring with displacement x from its original length is given by: EEp = 1/2 kx2 (can be proved using integration) where k is the spring constant of the spring. So, if the displacement of the mass is doubled, the elastic EEp stored will increase by 22, that is by 4.


What are two ways a spring can store elastic potential energy?

A spring can store elastic potential energy by someone/something squeezing or pulling the spring


What is the name for energy stored by a stretched or compressed object?

Elastic energy, for example, a stretched spring.


How can you describe elastic energy?

Elastic energy is really potential energy that is derived from the stretching of an item such as a spring. The energy potential is based on the force used stretch the spring and the distance the spring is stretched.


What energy is in compressed spring?

Elastic potential energy


Give one example of an object before and after it has gained elastic potential energy?

Elastic potential energy refers to the potential energy stored as a result of deformation of an elastic object. An example of this is a spring, which springs back before it has gained elastic potential energy. After a spring gains elastic potential energy, it will be deformed.


What is also called elastic energy?

Elastic energy is also called Elastic Potential energy. It is the potential energy stored as a result of a deformation of an elastic object such as a spring. According to Hooke's law the force required to stretch the spring will be directly proportional to the amount of stretch.


What kind of energy is stored when you stretch a spring?

elastic energy..
