Where is the energy stored in a wind-up toy?
Whatever winds the tool up - usually energy stored in your muscles.
How much a 5-pound weight would stretch the spring?
It depends on spring energy or spring strength
What are the two types of potential energy?
There is chemical potential energy, heat potential energy, elastic potential, and gravitational potential energy.
Describe the energy change of a wind up toy car as it runs down a slope?
The mechanical energy is stored in the spring as potential energy within the pullback toy and when you release it, it gets converted into kinetic energy. Hence cycle is Mechanical --- Spring (Potential)--- Kinetic
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.
Example of spring energy?
Compressing a spring is potential energy in a system.
What are two ways a spring can store elastic potential energy?
A spring can store elastic potential energy by compressing or stretching. When a spring is compressed, energy is stored in the form of potential energy due to the force applied to compress it. Similarly, when a spring is stretched, energy is stored in the form of potential energy that can be released when the spring returns to its original position.
What is potential energy called that is associated with objects that can be stretched?
Elasticity.
In what two ways can you increase the elastic potential energy of a spring?
You can increase the elastic potential energy of a spring by stretching or compressing it further. The more you stretch or compress the spring, the greater the potential energy stored in it.
What is spring friction?
Spring friction refers to the resistance encountered when compressing or extending a spring due to internal friction between the coils. The friction generates heat, resulting in energy loss and reduced efficiency of the spring. It can lead to decreased performance and premature wear of the spring over time.
What two ways can you increase the elastic potential energy of a spring?
You can increase the elastic potential energy of a spring by stretching or compressing it further from its equilibrium position. The more you stretch or compress the spring, the more potential energy it will store.
Is it gravitational energy in the spring of a jack in the box?
No, the energy stored in the spring of a jack-in-the-box is potential energy due to the compression of the spring. When the spring is released, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy as the jack pops out of the box and moves upwards due to gravity.
What is the name for energy stored by a stretched or compressed object?
Elastic energy, for example, a stretched spring.
Where is there energy when you stretch a spring?
When you stretch a spring, the energy is stored as potential energy in the form of elastic potential energy. This potential energy is stored in the spring due to the deformation of its shape, and it is released when the spring returns to its original position.
Which form of energy is observed when a spring is squashed?
Elastic potential energy is observed when a spring is squashed. This energy is stored in the spring due to its deformation and can be released when the spring returns to its original shape.
Is a pushed down spring kinetic energy?
No the energy stored in a compressed spring is not kinetic energy.
What is the work done by a spring when it is compressed or stretched?
The work done by a spring when it is compressed or stretched is the energy stored in the spring due to the deformation. This energy is potential energy that can be released when the spring returns to its original shape.
