Mechanical Energy - Coggle Diagram

- - - - The energy stored as a result of applying a force to deform an elastic object.
    - - EPE = 1/2 k x^2
      - k = spring constant (N/m)
        x = displacement of the spring from neutral position (m)
        EPE = Elastic Potential Energy (J)
    - - Spring constant
        
        In series and parallel
      - F = -k x
      - x = displacement from equilibrium (m) k = spring constant (N/m)
  - - - The energy of an object due to its position above Earth's surface. It is compared to a Reference Point (base level)
    - - GPE = mgh
      - m = mass (kg)
        g = gravitational acceleration(m/s^2) = 9.81 m/s^2
        h = height (m)
        GPE = Gravitational Potential Energy (J)
