What will happen when the elastic spring force is reduced?

The elastic spring stretches more when subjected to the same force.


What is increased when a spring is compressed?

Elastic force. It is a reaction which comes into the scene due to elastic nature of the material of the spring.


What was the force that the spring exerted on the object?

Elastic Spring Force


What is an example for energy transferring to elastic energy?

An example of energy transferring to elastic energy is when a spring is compressed. When a force is applied to compress the spring, potential energy is stored in the spring as elastic potential energy. This energy can be released when the spring returns to its original shape.


Is a weaker spring more or less elastic?

A weaker spring is more elastic because due to it becoming older by the passage of time. A weaker spring is more elastic because due to it becoming older by the passage of time.


What is energy in spring?

Elastic potential energy


What two factors does elastic potential energy depend upon?

Elastic potential energy depends on the spring constant (stiffness of the spring) and the displacement from equilibrium (how far the spring is stretched or compressed).


Give one example of an object before and after it has gained elastic potential energy?

Elastic potential energy refers to the potential energy stored as a result of deformation of an elastic object. An example of this is a spring, which springs back before it has gained elastic potential energy. After a spring gains elastic potential energy, it will be deformed.


A compressed spring has elastic potential energy.true or false?

True. A compressed spring has elastic potential energy due to the work done to compress it. This potential energy is stored in the spring and can be converted into kinetic energy when the spring is released.


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.


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.
