... the bigger the force on the elastic band the further it will stretch. From this I will make a prediction: "The more force put on the elastic band the further the weight will travel the further the elastic band is pulled back the more potential energy it stores when released more potential energy is changed into kinetic energy and therefore more kinetic energy is used to move the weight. I predict that as the elastic band gains more potential energy (pulled back further) it will fire the weight further (more kinetic energy). If you double the force put on the elastic band and if you double the distance that it is pulled back then the distance that the weight is fired will quadruples." Work = Force X Distance X4 X2 X2 From looking at my preliminary graph I am going to investigate the straight area (0-10N) as this seems to be a good reflection of ...
