Examples of potential energy?
A stretched rubber band has elastic potential energy. Water stored behind a dam has gravitational potential energy. A compressed spring in a toy car has elastic potential energy. A book placed on a shelf has gravitational potential energy.
Can kinetic energy be measured in newtons?
No, kinetic energy is measured in Joules (J), as this is the SI unit for energy.
What potential energy does a squashed ball have?
When a ball is squashed, it gains potential energy due to the compression of its material. This potential energy is stored in the form of elastic potential energy, as the ball has the potential to return to its original shape when released.
Where is the energy of an earthquake stored before the earthquake?
The energy of an earthquake is stored as elastic strain energy in the Earth's crust along the fault line prior to the earthquake. This energy is released when the stress on the fault exceeds the strength of the rocks, causing them to break and the energy to be radiated as seismic waves.
What piece of apparatus would you use to change elastic potential energy into kinetic energy?
A spring would be the apparatus used to change elastic potential energy into kinetic energy. When a compressed or stretched spring is released, it converts the stored potential energy into kinetic energy as it returns to its equilibrium position.
What is elastic potential energy measured in?
Elastic potential energy is measured in joules (J), which is the unit for all forms of energy. It represents the energy stored in an elastic object, such as a spring, when it is stretched or compressed.
What forms of energy are in stretched elastic?
In stretched elastic, the primary forms of energy present are elastic potential energy, which is the energy stored in the elastic material due to its deformation, and kinetic energy, if the elastic material is moving.
What form of energy is in stretched elastic?
The energy stored in a stretched elastic is potential energy, specifically elastic potential energy. When the elastic is stretched, work is done to stretch it, and this work is stored as potential energy in the elastic material.
What is the name for energy stored by a stretched or compressed object?
Elastic energy, for example, a stretched spring.
What energy is in elastic objects?
Elastic potential energy is stored in elastic objects when they are stretched or compressed. This energy is potential energy that can be released when the object returns to its original shape.
How to Determine elastic potential energy?
The potential energy is the product of the force required to compress or stretch the elastic medium, and the distance of travel. If the force is measured in Newtons and the movement in meters, the work done will be in Joules.
What is the difference between elastic force and elastic potential energy?
Elastic force is the force exerted by a stretched or compressed elastic material to return to its original shape. Elastic potential energy is the energy stored in an elastic material when it is stretched or compressed. The elastic force is responsible for restoring the material to its original shape, converting the stored elastic potential energy back to kinetic energy.
What are 3 examples of Elastic energy?

What elastic potential energy?
Elastic potiential energy is the energy stored when an object is squeed or stretched.
How does an elastic power car work?
Elastic cars work by converting elastic potential energy into kinetic energy. The most potential energy, the more kinetic energy.
Where does elastic energy come from?
The Elastic Energy is the energy of the molecular and/or atomic bounding forces - the structure of the material.
What is the energy stored in elastic materials?
It is a form of potential energy. It turns in Kinetic energy (the energy of movement) when the elastic is released.
