Question

what form of energy does a compressed spring have? a heat energy b kinetic energy c chemical energy d potential energy

Explanation:

A compressed spring has the ability to do work when released due to its deformed state. Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or configuration. In the case of a compressed spring, it is deformed from its equilibrium position and stores elastic - potential energy. Heat energy is related to temperature differences, kinetic energy is the energy of motion, and chemical energy is stored in chemical bonds.

Answer:

D. potential energy
