A gravity-powered clock, such as a grandfather clock or a torsion pendulum clock, converts gravitational energy to elastic energy using a weight-driven mechanism. The weight slowly descends due to gravity, causing the clock's spring or pendulum to wind up and store potential energy as tension in the spring or material of the pendulum.

What do gravitational and elastic energy have in common?
Gravitational and elastic energy are both forms of potential energy. Gravitational potential energy is related to an object's position relative to a gravitational field, while elastic potential energy is associated with the deformation of an elastic material. Both types of energy can be converted into kinetic energy when the object moves or returns to its original shape.
What kind of machine converts chemical energy to electrical energy to electrical energy?
A machine that converts one form of energy into another form is called a transducer.
What type of energy converts into mechanical energy?
Potential energy (such as gravitational potential energy or elastic potential energy) can be converted into mechanical energy when an object is in motion, either through the force of gravity or by releasing stored energy.
What sport involves transforming gravitational potential energy into elastic energy?
This can happen in many sports. One common example is anything that involves a ball - of the type that can bounce when they fall. In such a ball, when it falls down, gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy; later, when it touches the ground, the kinetic energy is converted into elastic energy. When the ball bounces back, part of this elastic energy (typically, most of it) is converted back into kinetic energy.
What are 2 forms of energy that relates them to kinetic energy or potential energy?
Two forms of energy are gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy. Gravitational potential energy is related to potential energy as it is stored energy due to an object's position in a gravitational field. Elastic potential energy is related to kinetic energy as it is stored energy due to the deformation of an elastic material, which can be released to create kinetic energy when the material returns to its original shape.

What does black hole does with the energy which it absorbs?
It converts it into gravitational energy.
Chemical energy elastic energy and gravitational energy are different forms of?
potential energy
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.
What kind of machine converts chemical energy to electrical energy to electrical energy?
A machine that converts one form of energy into another form is called a transducer.
Elastic energy is the total potential and kinetic energy in a system?
No. For example a falling stone is converting potential energy of gravitational attraction into kinetic energy, and there is no elastic energy.

Define elastic potential energy and gravitional potential energy?
Gravitational potential energy, is the energy an object possesses by reason of its position in a gravitational field. While elastic potential energy, is the energy stored by a material or object as a result of deformation e.g. the energy stored in a bow when it is stretched.

Can Elastic potential energy be converted to gravitational potential energy?
Yes. For example when a mass hung to a spring is displaced downwards from its equilibrium position, it oscillates and at the maximum height, the body has gained gravitational Ep compared to its initial position.
What are the forms of potential energy?
The forms of potential energy include gravitational potential energy (due to an object's position in a gravitational field), elastic potential energy (stored in elastic materials when they are stretched or compressed), and chemical potential energy (stored in chemical bonds of molecules).
