Elastic potential energy is the energy stored in elastic materials as the result of their stretching or compressing.
Whatever be the operating force electromagnetic gravitational strong or weak every change that occurs in the universe is a conversion from potential to kinetic energy from merely being in a position in space in presence of forces a particle has an inherent energy associated with it that s termed as potential energy.
Learn what elastic potential energy means and how to calculate it.
Elastic potential energy is the energy an object has in it due to being deformed.
Springs and hooke s law.
Elastic potential energy formula elastic potential energy is the potential energy stored by stretching or compressing an elastic object by an external force such as the stretching of a spring.
Our elastic potential energy calculator uses the following formula.
Rarely is an object raised high enough to change the gravitational field so 9 8 m s2 meters per second squared is almost always used in the formula.
To calculate the potential energy of an object the formula for potential energy pe is pe mgh where m stands for mass of the object in kilograms kg g is the gravitational field strength and h is the height of the object in meters m.
Here s how you give that potential energy or the elastic potential energy.
Elastic energy occurs when objects are impermanently compressed stretched or generally deformed in any manner.
The work done on the spring changes the potential energy stored in the spring.
It is equal to the work done to stretch the spring which depends on the spring constant k and the distance stretched.
Calculating elastic potential energy the amount of elastic potential energy stored in a stretched spring can be calculated using the equation.
What is elastic potential energy.
Elasticity theory primarily develops formalisms for the mechanics of solid bodies and materials.
For example suppose a spring is elastic and has a spring constant k of.
