A wound-up spring possesses such energy?
potential energy
What type of energy is stored in a wound up spring?
We call it elastic potential energy.
What energy changes take place inside a clock?
It depends on the type of clock. A mechanical clock converts potential energy to kinetic energy. The energy is wound up in the spring and is released through the escape mechanism and gears.In a motorized clock, electricity is converted to magnetism and then motion.In a digital clock, electricity is converted to light and the electricity is also used to power the logic circuitry needed to put the correct time on the display.
What type of energy does a pendulum clock have?
The pendulum is constantly transitioning between kinetic and potential energy. When wound up, the spring has elastic potential energy. The gears involve mechanical energy. Of course, if it is made of wood you have some chemical energy too (they burn quite well in a fire).
What is a spring powered clock?
A spring powered clock is a type of mechanical clock that uses a mainspring as its energy source. The mainspring is wound up manually, usually with a key, and as it unwinds it powers the clock's movement, causing the hands to move and the clock to keep time.

How does a analog clock work?
You almost answered your own question, clock work spring. Analog clocks were wound up, the main spring was wound up by a key, some every two or three days, and some would run by being wound once a year. Today you will still here about clock work inventions, like the clockwork radio, and the clockwork torch, they are also wound up. These modern inventions on an old theme, last for the period the winder is turned to provide power to the battery.Hope this helped see more on-line.
What type of energy is used by clockwork toys?
Kinetic energy and potential energy is stored in the wound-up spring or gear of the toy mechanism.It is called conservation of energy.
How do you start a pendulum clock?
First ensure that the clock is wound up if it's a spring type or that the weight is adjusted to the top if its a bobweight escapement. Then proceed by moving the pendulum to one side and releasing it so that it can swing.
How does a mechanical wrist watch work?
Energy is stored in a wound up spring. The energy is released in a controlled manner by the use of gears, and turns the hands of the watch.
If a spring is wound up then set in resin slice off a section exposing the metal then immerse the spring in acid so that the spring is dissolved where does the energy go v?
If the spring is dissolved in acid and the spring is under tension the potential energy is still released as kinetic energy. The law of energy is that it can neither created nor destroyed is a constant. As the spring dissolves the energy is released. Just be cause the spring does not bounce in to it's natural shape does not mean that the energy was not released.
