Answer:

Rubber bands can store elastic potential energy when they are stretched. A spring stores energy in the elastic potential store when they are stretched, squashed and bent

Elastic Potential Energy

A stretched rubber band has the potential to do work or change things. This form of energy is called elastic potential energy. It occurs when an object (such as our skin, a spring, a trampoline, or a rubber band) resists being stretched out of shape.
