Elastic Potential Energy Read the information about potential energy During your second reading, highlight the following words: Spring Elastic Energy Potential energy Stretch Compress Force Spring constant Equilibrium position
Elastic Potential Energy Example A plastic bullet with a mass of.45 kg is put into a toy gun. The spring in the gun has a spring constant of 200 N/m. The spring is compressed.20 meters before the bullet is released. What is the potential energy of the bullet before the trigger is pulled?
Practice problem 1 A plastic bullet with a mass of.20 kg is put into a toy gun. The spring in the gun has a spring constant of 100 N/m. The spring is compressed 4.0 x meters before the bullet is released. What is the potential energy of the bullet before the trigger is pulled?
Practice problem 2 A plastic bullet with a mass of.35 kg is put into a toy gun. The spring in the gun has a spring constant of 300 N/m. The spring is compressed 6.0 x meters before the bullet is released. What is the potential energy of the bullet before the trigger is pulled?
Power Read your CNs and highlight the following words: rate, work, time, increase, decrease.
