Name: Introduction to Elastic Potential Energy with Examples
Category: Work, Energy, Power
Date Added: 2016-11-03
Submitter: Flipping Physics

Mr. Fullerton of APlusPhysics makes a guest appearance as a floating head to help us learn about Elastic Potential Energy. Several examples of objects which store elastic potential energy are shown and one example of stored elastic potential energy is calculated.
