Thnx theEric. It's helpful

OpenStudy (theeric):

Cool! That's a great sight for many physics concepts! :)

OpenStudy (theeric):

So can you apply it to an arrow? Do you mean bow and arrow?

OpenStudy (jmark):

Elastic potential energy refers to the potential energy of an elastic object that is deformed under tension or compression. It results from a force that tries to restore the object to its original shape, which is most often the electromagnetic force between the atoms and molecules that constitute the object.
