Elastic potential energy U = 1/2 k x^2.
A: 0.5(3)(1.0)^2 = 1.50 J
B: 0.5(6)(0.8)^2 = 1.92 J
C: 0.5(9)(0.6)^2 = 1.62 J
D: 0.5(12)(0.4)^2 = 0.96 J
Scenario B produces the most elastic potential energy.
A: 0.5(3)(1.0)^2 = 1.50 J
B: 0.5(6)(0.8)^2 = 1.92 J
C: 0.5(9)(0.6)^2 = 1.62 J
D: 0.5(12)(0.4)^2 = 0.96 J
Scenario B produces the most elastic potential energy.
