For a slingshot to work, you must pull back the rubber band and then release it. As you release it, the object that you placed on the rubber band propels forward. The data table below shows three trials of a student using a slingshot. Based on the table, what observations can be made about the elastic potential energy and the kinetic energy?

• 1. As the elastic potential energy increases, the kinetic energy increases.

• 1.  As the elastic potential energy increases, the kinetic energy decreases.

• 1. As the elastic potential energy decreases, the kinetic energy decreases.

• 1. As the elastic potential energy decreases, the kinetic energy decreases.
