Answer:

0.275J

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Extension  = 0.5m

Spring coefficient  = 2.2N/m

Unknown:

Energy stored in the rubberband  = ?

Solution:

The elastic potential energy is given as:

  Elastic potential energy  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] k e²  

 k is the spring constant

e is the extension

         Elastic potential energy  = [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]  x 2.2 x 0.5²  = 0.275J
