What is energy stored by thing that stretch or compress?
"elastic energy"
How potential energy arises an elastic spring?
Let's say you compress the spring. Work (mechanical energy) is required to compress the spring; this energy is stored in the spring and can be recovered (converted to another type of energy) when the spring returns to its normal position.
How is potential energy in a spring defined?
It can be defined as the work required to stretch or compress the string - the product of force times distance, as an integral, because the force is not constant.
Which type of energy increase when you compress a spring?
kinetic energy
What kind of energy is stored when you stretch a spring?
elastic energy..
How can you make potential energy greater?
If there is a spring involved, compress or stretch it more. If there is height involved, move it to a higher height.

When you stretch out a spring at what point would you have the greatest potential energy?
A spring has maximum potential energy at maximum displacement from equilibrium. This means that the greatest potential energy will occur when a spring is stretched as far as it will stretch or compressed as tightly as it will compress. In an oscillating system, where an object attached to a spring is moving back and forth at a given frequency, the object will oscillate about the equilibrium point, and the potential energy of the system will be greatest (and equal) when the object is farthest from equilibrium on either side.

What energy is used when you stretch a spring?
elastic potential energy :)
Thermal energy is energy stored by things that stretch or compress?
Thermal energy is not the energy stored by things that stretch or compress. This type of energy applies to strain potential energy. Thermal energy refers to motion energy due to the random vibration of atoms or molecules within an object.
What force is used in force meters?
Newtonian force The amount of force is measured by its ability to stretch or compress a spring.
If you compress a spring with your fingers your energy converts to PE of spring what if you do the same activity without any spring in between your fingers?
The energy is converted to the internal energy of our fingers and surroundings.
How much a 5-pound weight would stretch the spring?
It depends on spring energy or spring strength
