When a twisted rubber band is released, it unwinds and returns to its original shape, releasing stored elastic potential energy. This energy can be used to do work, such as moving an object or stretching another rubber band. The transfer of energy from the rubber band to the object being moved is how work is accomplished.
No, a rubber band is not a string. A rubber band is made of a different material, typically rubber or synthetic rubber, and is designed to stretch and provide elasticity, while a string is a thin, flexible cord made of fibers or other materials twisted together.
The elastic potential energy gained by the rubber band is the work done by you in elongating it. Positive work is done on the rubber band, so it gains energy. While work is done by you (i.e. negative work is done on you), so you lose some energy. The total energy is conserved. In simple words, the energy gained by the rubber band is the energy lost by you while elongating it.
A stretched rubber band has potential energy like a spring. It has the potential to snap back. I used to build model airplanes with rubber band motors. I also had a rubber band gun that shot rubber bands. The potential energy stored in the rubber bank is what made these devices work.
You can give a rubber band potential energy by stretching it. When you stretch a rubber band, you are doing work on it, which causes the rubber band to store potential energy in the form of strain energy. This potential energy is released when the rubber band is allowed to return to its original shape.
It has potential to do work. Looking at it another way, it requires energy to stretch the rubber band; this energy can be recovered - for example, by pulling something - when the rubber band gets back to its normal position.

I think the answer you are looking for is the stored energy (elastic potential energy) in the twisted rubber band becomes kinetic energy.

Twisted Wheel - band - was created in 2007.
When you shoot a rubber band, potential energy stored in the stretched rubber band is converted into kinetic energy as the rubber band moves through the air. The potential energy stored in the stretched rubber band comes from the work done to stretch it.
The rubber band stores potential energy when it is twisted. As it unwinds, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy that makes the propeller turn and allows the plane to fly.
The energy stored in a stretched rubber band comes from the work done to stretch it, which deforms the rubber molecules and stores potential energy in the molecular bonds. When the rubber band is released, this potential energy is converted back to kinetic energy as the rubber band snaps back to its original shape.

It depends on the rubber band if is a small rubber band then it will go about 20'and if it is an bigger rubber band then it will go about 35' but it depends on the rubber band and the way you shoot the rubber band
