forces and elasticity

Question 1

what has to happen to change a shape of an stationary object only?

Answer 1

more than one force has to be applied

Question 2

what is elastic deformation?

Answer 2

it can go back to its original shape and length after the force is gone

Question 3

what is inelastic deformation?

Answer 3

when its original shape has been changed due to forces it cant go back

Question 4

whats the equation to work out force?

Answer 4

force= spring constant x extension

Question 5

what is stored in a elastic object stretched or compressed?

Answer 5

elastic potential energy store

Question 6

whats the relationship between work done and elastic potential energy?

Answer 6

the work done is equal to the elastic potential energy stored

Question 7

what equipment is used in the experiment between force and extension?

Answer 7

a clamp stand, 2 bosses, 2 clamps, meter ruler and weights

Question 8

what does the pointer attached to the spring indicate?

Answer 8

the unstretched length of the spring

Question 9

how do calculate the extension made by adding weights?

Answer 9

for each reading you subtract the stretched length from the unstreched length

Question 10

what is the extension produced by 1 newton weight

Answer 10

4 because if its a newton weight you times by 4
