a tightly packed spring, it will act like a rubber band from a rubber band gun when you let go. that is how i remember ELASTIC potential. rubber bands are like elastic.
rubber band
a rubber band has the same elasticity as any other, however in order to sustaine more elasticity, the best thing to do is put an elastic band in a fridge and leave it for the night. When you take the elastic band out, it will last for longer. Thus is scientifically proven
N0. The common belief is that if an object elongates easily the object is more elastic . But in Physics the object which gives more resistance to elongate is said to be more elastic . Such objects will have high Young's modulus . Steel is more elastic than copper . The Young's modulus for steel is 210 G Pa For copper it is 117 G Pa Elongation for steel is 35% and for copper it is 45% For rubber Young's modulus is 0.02 G Pa and elongation is 500 % During collision two clay balls will stick together. We call it inelastic collision . Two steel balls will rebound easily and the collision is elastic collision.

Rubber is more elastic than iron ... the main reason that you seldom find underpants manufactured with iron wastebands.

natural rubber is more elastic than synthetic rubber
The elasticity of a solid means the tendency of it to resist deformation & return to it's original shape ie iron is more elastic than a rubber band. Weird isn't it?

No, the term for something that can bend is "flexible." Elastic more often associates itself with being able to stretch, like a rubber band.
If a pulling force is exerted on an elastic band, then the elastic band will stretch. The more force that is exerted, the more the band will stretch.
Rubber.
It moves quickly to its unstretched position.
