Question

The energy stored in wounded spring watch is

• A. kinetic energy
• B. potential energy
• C. heat energy
• D. chemical energy

Answer 1

The correct option is B potential energy

The energy stored in spring in the form of elastic potential energy. i.e., $(P.E{)}_{elastic}=\frac{1}{2}k{x}^2$
Where x is compression or elongation of spring & k is spring constant.
