Q: Which type of energy is there in a stretched rubber band?
  • A. Chemical energy
  • B. Potential energy
  • C. Kinetic energy
  • D. Heat energy
Correct Answer: Option B - A stretched rubber band has potential energy stored in it, when it is releases the potential energy gets converted into kinetic energy. Because it is an elastic material, the kind of its potential energy is called as elastic potential energy.
