Explaining Mechanical Energy
A dart gun is an example of mechanical energy. When a
dart gun is loaded and the springs are compressed, it
possesses mechanical energy.
Mechanical energy is the energy of work. Back in the
olden days, inventors used steam to power turbines, or
used water to turn wheels in a river. These are examples
of mechanical energy
Mechanical Energy is energy stored in objects by tension.
Examples
Compressed springs and stretched rubber bands
are examples of stored mechanical energy.
Mechanical energy is used to create the water
pressure that makes water come out of the
faucet. It is also found in ceiling fans that
circulate the air.
