Elastic Potential Energy Formulas

Elastic potential energy is energy stored as a result of applying a force to deform an elastic object. The energy is stored until the force is removed and the object springs back to its original shape, doing work in the process. The deformation could involve compressing, stretching or twisting the object.

U = 12 ^{× (k X2)}

Where,

U - potential energy of spring in joules

X - spring stretch length in m

k - spring force constant N/m

Spring Force Constant Formulas

k = 2UX²

k - spring force constant N/m

Stretch Length Formulas

X = √(_2Uk)

Where,

U - potential energy of spring in joules

X - spring stretch length in m

k - spring force constant N/m
