Trampoline Elastic Potential Energy. Trampoline elastic potential energy elastic potential energy to put it very simply is the energy that is stored within an elastic object. As you jump down on a trampoline your potential energy converts into kinetic energy.
Elastic potential energy is stored in these objects when they are pulled stretched or compressed. Your elastic energy acts against the trampolines elastic energy which it has more of than you resulting in a much larger reaction. Kinetic energy is the energy of anything in motion from you and your dog all the way down to the atoms in the air.

Khan academy is a 501 c 3 nonprofit organization. Kinetic energy is the energy of anything in motion from you and your dog all the way down to the atoms in the air. The second form of potential energy that we will discuss is elastic potential energy. On a conceptual level portrays the transfer of energy from the from of the elastic potential energy stored in the spring of the trampoline to the girls kinetic energy as she leaves the trampoline and finally into gravitational potential energy as she comes to a stop at a peak of her motion.
