A rubber band car uses potential elastic energy from the rubber bands by turning it to kinetic energy. This kinetic energy is what makes the car move after which the rubber band swiftly returns to its original size and shape. When the band is wound around the axle‚ it is given the potential energy which is energy that is stored for later use. When the rubber band is released the spinning axle turns the potential energy into kinetic energy. This therefore follows that the more the rubber band is
