The correct answer is:
between kinetic energy and elastic potential energy.

In fact, the total mechanical energy of the system is given by:
[tex]E=U+K[/tex]
where
[tex]U= \frac{1}{2}kx^2 [/tex]
is the elastic potential energy, with k being the spring constant and x being the compression/stretching of the spring, and
[tex]K= \frac{1}{2}mv^2 [/tex]
is the kinetic energy, with m being the mass of the toy and v being its speed.

When the spring is compressed, the elastic potential energy U is maximum (since x is maximum), and the kinetic energy is zero(since the speed is zero). As the spring is released, the elastic potential energy U decreases (because x decreases), and the kinetic energy K increases (since the speed of the toy v increases).

Answer:

The correct answer is:

In fact, the total mechanical energy of the system is given by:

where

is the elastic potential energy, with k being the spring constant and x being the compression/stretching of the spring, and

is the kinetic energy, with m being the mass of the toy and v being its speed.

When the spring is compressed, the elastic potential energy U is maximum (since x is maximum), and the kinetic energy is zero(since the speed is zero). As the spring is released, the elastic potential energy U decreases (because x decreases), and the kinetic energy K increases (since the speed of the toy v increases).
