Elastic Potential Energy: Calculation and Examples

The video tutorial explains elastic potential energy, focusing on how energy is stored in a spring when stretched. It covers the concept of work done by gravity, the energy transfer process, and the formula for calculating elastic potential energy. An example calculation is provided to illustrate the concept, followed by a summary and closing remarks.
