Spring Potential Energy

Spring Potential Energy Calculator

Enter values to compute.

Understanding the Math

The Spring Potential Energy computes the result using fundamental principles of mathematics. Calculate elastic potential energy.

Formula Definition

Result = 0.5 × k × x × x

This formula is applied directly to the inputs provided above. Ensure all units are consistent (e.g., all lengths in meters) before calculation to guarantee accuracy.

Example Problem

Given:

  • Spring Constant (k) = 9
  • Displacement (x) = 8

Solution:

Substitute values into the formula:

Result = 0.5 × 9 × 8 × 8

Quick Notes

  • Double-check input units. Inconsistent units (e.g. feet vs meters) will yield incorrect results.
  • Calculations are performed with high-precision floating point arithmetic.
