What happens to a rubber band if exposed to heat?
When a rubber band is exposed to heat it contracts heat, meaning that sucks up all the heat and becomes smaller.
Does cold weather affect a rubber band?
yes it does because from all the warm,hot,cold,rainy weather it does affect it if there was lighting it would shocked the rubber band to have cracks or marks or it can sometime pull out the rubber band
If you shoot a rubber band how far will it go?
It depends on the rubber band if is a small rubber band then it will go about 20'and if it is an bigger rubber band then it will go about 35' but it depends on the rubber band and the way you shoot the rubber band
How far can a rubber band be stretched before it breaks?
This depends on the size of the rubber band, the materials and impurities in the rubber band, and the speed at which you stretch it, as well as the conditions that the rubber band has been under.
What are 100 ways to use a rubber band?
i don't know a hundred, but you could make a rubber band gun, and a rubber band ball, or a rubber band chain. just look on youtube for instructions.

Does a light bulb get hot enough to melt a rubber band?
The bulb glows because the filament inside ( made of tungsten) get's so hot that it becomes red and starts emitting light. A little of it's heat is also radiated to the glass of the bulb and that's what makes it hot. But it will never get hot enough to melt a rubber band.

I think the answer you are looking for is the stored energy (elastic potential energy) in the twisted rubber band becomes kinetic energy.
