Which form of energy increases when a spring is compressed? a. chemical potential energy b. elastic potential energy c. kinetic energy d. radiant energy e. thermal energy

Elastic potential energy

Explanation:

The potential energy of a spring is given by :

..........(1)

Where

k = spring constant

x = compression or elongation in the spring

When the spring is compresses, elastic potential energy of the spring increase. From equation (1), it is clear that the elastic potential energy of spring is directly proportional to the compression or elongation in the spring.

Hence, the correct option is (b) "elastic potential energy".

a adaptation is when organism changes itself to fit the environment

hello everyone my name is nevaeh, i know everyone needs in some way, shape, or form and i am willing to provide. i set up a google classroom where people can ask me questions and get on work. no question is a stupid question so do not be afraid to ask. i usually only focus on core subjects but if you ask i will with other specialized subjects. i can do essays all the way to power points : )

my google classroom is the code is 7hr2k4

~ use this opportunity to get more so you can thrive in the classroom

explanation:

the universal gravitation equation. since the gravitational force is directly proportional to the mass of both interacting objects, more massive objects will attract each other with a greater gravitational force. if the mass of one of the objects is doubled, then the force of gravity between them is doubled.
