What energy is used when you stretch a spring?
elastic potential energy :)
What kind of energy is stored when you stretch a spring?
elastic energy..
What is the energy to stretch or compress a spring?
elaborate
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.
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.

How much a 5-pound weight would stretch the spring?
It depends on spring energy or spring strength
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 does get energy mean?
it means when you get something that has energy in it like a rubber band when you stretch it it has energy or a spring when you pull it it has energy and/or when you squish it, it has energy in it also

Springs are great for absorbing energy. The spring force is negative when the spring is stretched and positive when it is compressed or pushed.
Why does streaching a rubber band increase its potential energy?
its potential energy is 1/2kx^2 -k is its spring constant and x its displacement - the higher the stretch, the more the energy which goes as the square of the stretch, x
When you stretch out a spring at what point would you have the greatest potential energy?
A spring has maximum potential energy at maximum displacement from equilibrium. This means that the greatest potential energy will occur when a spring is stretched as far as it will stretch or compressed as tightly as it will compress. In an oscillating system, where an object attached to a spring is moving back and forth at a given frequency, the object will oscillate about the equilibrium point, and the potential energy of the system will be greatest (and equal) when the object is farthest from equilibrium on either side.
Which forces are acting when you stretch a spring?
The force you are exerting to stretch it, and the restoring force of the spring.
