I think because your blood circulation gets cut off . . . :)
No. The rubber band stores energy as elastic potential energy. U = (1/2)*k*(L)^2 where, U is the stored energy k is the spring constant for the rubber band L is the displacement
When you put a lot of rubber bands around a watermelon, the pressure from the rubber bands creates tension and stress on the watermelon's outer skin. Eventually, this pressure becomes too much for the watermelon to withstand, causing it to break open or explode.
Yes, temperature can affect a rubber ball. Rubber becomes more flexible and bouncy at higher temperatures but can become brittle at very low temperatures. Extreme temperature changes can also cause the rubber to degrade over time.
When a rubber band is stretched, the polymer chains within the rubber band are forced to align and straighten out. This alignment and straightening of the polymer chains requires energy, which is converted into heat. As a result, the rubber band feels warm to the touch.
When you stretch the rubber band it creates tension that is transferred into kinetic energy when you release it and so it moves and in moving it moves in turn the air around it and the air vibrates your ear drum creating a noise (it is a higher pitch if it is tighter because the rubber band is more tense so it moves the air faster thus the higher sound)
By drawing around your hand and cut a few layers of paper and glue them with a glutting and then get 5 rubber bands and tie them on the fingers by tie it 2 knots and do it one more time then once you’re finished put you real fingers through the rubber bands and then move your fingers.
The easiest way to make a gun out of a rubber band is by using your hands. Simply stretch the rubber band between two fingers and release one of your fingers when you want to shoot.
Rubber becomes harder and less pliable as the temperature decreases until ultimately it actually becomes brittle.

I think the answer you are looking for is the stored energy (elastic potential energy) in the twisted rubber band becomes kinetic energy.
Replace it.
No. The rubber band stores energy as elastic potential energy. U = (1/2)*k*(L)^2 where, U is the stored energy k is the spring constant for the rubber band L is the displacement

Rubber becomes softer and more elastic at higher temperatures, making it prone to deform under pressure. Conversely, at lower temperatures, rubber becomes harder and more brittle, which can lead to cracking or breaking upon impact. Extreme temperature fluctuations can degrade the chemical structure of rubber, reducing its flexibility and lifespan.
