Elastic Potential Energy vs Spring Constant (k)

Formule

## Elastic Potential Energy Energy stored in a deformed elastic object (like a spring) follows Hooke's law. ### Formula **PE = (1/2) * k * x²** where k is the spring constant and x is the displacement from the natural length.

Exemple Résolu

A spring with k = 200 N/m is compressed 0.1 m.

  1. 01PE = 0.5 * k * x²
  2. 02PE = 0.5 * 200 * 0.01
  3. 03PE = 1 J

Questions Fréquentes

What is a spring constant?

The spring constant k (units: N/m) measures stiffness. A higher k means a stiffer spring that requires more force per unit of displacement.

Does compression or extension matter?

No. The energy formula uses x², so the same magnitude of compression or extension stores the same energy.

What is Hooke's law?

Hooke's law states F = -k*x, meaning the restoring force is proportional to displacement. It holds for small deformations.
