Forces and elasticity

?
Work done to an elastic object is stored as?
elastic potential energy
1 of 16
When you apply a force to an object you may cause it to?
stretch and change in shape
2 of 16
Any object that can go back to its original shape after the force has been removed is an?
elastic object
3 of 16
Work is done to an elastic object to change its?
shape
4 of 16
This energy is not lost but is stored by?
the object as elastic potential energy
5 of 16
The elastic potential energy is the converted to kinetic energy when?
the force is removed and the object returns to its original shape (when a spring or an elastic band bounces back)
6 of 16
Extension of an elastic object is?
directly proportional to force
7 of 16
If a spring is supported at the top and then a weight attached to the bottom , it?
stretches
8 of 16
The extension of a stretched spring is directly proportional to?
the load or force applied (f)
9 of 16
The extension is measured in?
metres
10 of 16
The force is measured in?
newtons
11 of 16
What equation?
f=k times e
12 of 16
k is?
the spring constant
13 of 16
Its value depends on?
the material that you are stretching and its measured in newtons per metre (N/m)
14 of 16
But this stops working when?
the force is great enough
15 of 16
There is a limit to the amount of force you can apply to a object for the extension to keep increasing?
proportionality
