Question

Energy stored in the kinetic energy container is fundamentally different from energy stored in the elastic energy container.True or false

Answer 1

The kinetic energy is given by:

`K=(1)/(2)mv^2`

Where:

m = mass of the object

v = Speed of the object

The elastic potential energy is given by:

`U=(1)/(2)k\Delta x`

Where:

k = Constant of the spring

Δx = Displacement

As we can see, both energy depends on different factors, therefore we can conclude the statement is true

Answer:

True
