The work done by a spring when it is compressed or stretched is the energy stored in the spring due to the deformation. This energy is potential energy that can be released when the spring returns to its original shape.

Elastic potential energy. When a spring is compressed or a rubber band is stretched, work is done on the object to store potential energy that can be released when the object returns to its original shape.
The work done by the stretching body is equal to the difference in potential energy stored in the spring before and after it is stretched. This work is done against the restoring force of the spring.
When an object is stretched or compressed, it possesses potential energy due to the work done in deforming the object. This potential energy is stored within the object and is released when the object returns to its original shape.
True. A compressed spring has elastic potential energy due to the work done to compress it. This potential energy is stored in the spring and can be converted into kinetic energy when the spring is released.
Stretched or compressed objects store potential energy due to their deformed shape. This potential energy is a result of the work done to stretch or compress the object, and it can be released as kinetic energy when the object returns to its original shape.

The potential energy stored in the spring increases as it is stretched horizontally. This potential energy is converted from the work done to stretch the spring against the restoring force. Additionally, the length of the spring increases while the tension within the spring also increases.
Elastic force is a type of force exerted by an elastic object, like a spring or rubber band, when it is stretched, compressed, or twisted. This force is caused by the object's tendency to return to its original shape or position. The magnitude of the elastic force is directly proportional to the amount the object is stretched or compressed.
The amount the spring is stretched is called the displacement.
The stored energy in a stretched-out slinky spring toy is potential energy. As the coils are pulled apart, work is done to stretch the spring, and this work is stored in the spring as potential energy. When the spring is released, this potential energy is converted back into kinetic energy as the coils snap back together.
A spring is a flexible component that can store mechanical energy when compressed or stretched. It works by utilizing its elastic properties to absorb and release energy as it deforms in response to an external force. When the force is removed, the spring returns to its original shape, releasing the stored energy.
Stretching a strong spring requires more work because it has a higher spring constant, meaning it resists deformation more than a weak spring. The work done in stretching a spring is directly proportional to the square of the distance it is stretched, so a strong spring will require more work to stretch the same distance as a weak spring.
Spring energy refers to the potential energy stored in an object that is compressed, stretched, or otherwise deformed. This potential energy is a result of the object's position or state of deformation and can be released to do work when the object returns to its equilibrium position.
