Elastic Potential Energy is _____________________________________.
the ability of a material to return to its original shape after it has been stretched or deformed.
potential energy that is stored due to the deformation of an elastic object, such as a stretched spring.
energy stored in the bonds of chemical compounds. Chemical energy is released during chemical reactions.
the energy contained within a system that is responsible for its temperature.
the flow of thermal energy.
If F is force, k is spring constant and e is extension, Hooke's Law tells us that:
F=k/e
e=Fk
k=Fe
F=ke
Spring constant is measured in
N
N/m
m
