· ATP is like a compressed spring because each phosphate group is negatively charged and they all repel each other, so as soon as the bonds between them break, they disconnect.

Compressed springs are what kind of energy?
The potential energy of a spring is defined by this equation: U=.5kx2 U= potential energy (in joules) k= the spring constant x= the displacement of the spring from equilibrium. (the amount that the spring is stretched or compressed) This equation tells us that as a spring is compressed by a distance x, the potential energy increases proportionately to x2
Is the energy stored in a compressed spring called strain energy?
The energy stored in a compressed spring is called potential energy.
What is it called when a spring is fully compressed?
Dangerous.
Is the energy stored in a compressed spring called kinetic energy?
No, it is called potential energy. When the compressed spring is allowed to expand, then it becomes kinetic energy.
A compressed spring has elastic potential energy?
Yes.

What sort of energy is in the compressed spring?
Spring potential energy.
Does a spring has chemical potential energy when it is compressed?
no it is not,
What is it called when a spring is fully compressed?

How do you remove the top nut on the rear shock of a 1997 Lincoln town car?
The rear shock spring will need to be compressed with a spring compressor. When the spring is compressed the top nut can easily be removed.
What energy is in compressed spring?
Elastic potential energy
A compressed spring has elastic potential energy?
Yes.
What is it called when the coils of a spring are spread out?
The spring has been stretched. When the coils are squeezed together then the spring has been compressed.
Is a pushed down spring kinetic energy?
No the energy stored in a compressed spring is not kinetic energy.
How does a spring air rifle work?
When the rifle is cocked, a spring is compressed. Pulling the trigger releases the spring, which pushes a piston forward, The piston compresses air as it moves. The compressed air blows the BB or pellet out of the barrel.
