Elastic Potential Energy Calculator, Formula, Elastic Potential Energy Calculation

Elastic Potential Energy Calculator:

Enter the values of Spring Constant k_(N/m) &  Distance  from the Spring y_(m)  to determine the value of Elastic Potential Energy U_(J) .

Elastic Potential Energy Formula:

The Elastic Potential Energy U_(J) in Joules is Equal to the Half into Multiply the Spring Constant k_(N/m) in Newton per Meter and is Multiply the Distance from the Spring y_(m) in meter is squared.

The Formula of Elastic Potential Energy can be written as,

U_(J) = ½ * k_(N/m) * y²_(m)

Here,

U_(J) = Elastic Potential Energy in Joules

k_(N/m) = Spring Constant in Newton per Meter

y_(m) = Distance  from the Spring in meter

Elastic Potential Energy Calculation:

1) Calculate the Elastic Potential Energy and given for Spring Constant = 20N/m, Distance from the Spring = 5m.

Answer

U = ½ * k * y²

U = 0.5 * 20 * 5²

U = 250J.

2) Calculate the Distance from the Spring and given for Spring Constant = 20N/m, Elastic Potential Energy = 250J.

Answer

U = ½ * k * y²

250 = 0.5 * 20 * y²

y = 5m.
