When a spring is compressed, which of these energy stores is energy transferred to?
|
|
The spring’s elastic potential energy store
|
|
|
The spring’s nuclear energy store
|
|
|
The spring’s magnetic energy store
|
|
|
None of the above

Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Potential energy is stored in a compressed spring.
Detailed explanation-2: -Elastic potential energy is the potential energy stored by stretching or compressing an elastic object by an external force such as the stretching of a spring. It is equal to the work done to stretch the spring which depends on the spring constant k and the distance stretched.
