When a rubber band is stretched it has what energy

Name the energy stored when a rubber band is stretched?

Answered by admin @



ANSWER

1)When a rubber band is stretched then the energy we use to stretch it is stored in the rubber band in form of elastic potential energy.

2)As soon as we stretch a rubber band the adjacent chains are broken that results in warming of the rubber band and the heat energy is lost.Therefore if you put heat energy into a rubber band it will get shorter unlike most materials when they are heated they expands.
