A trend is a line on a graph that all points seem to follow. This is best explained when thinking about line of best fit. If all your points go upward each time and are closed together, we can find the line that gets closest to each point!
Think of a trend as a pattern. The line of best fit, created by analyzing the trends, helps us guess at what the data points beyond what we have will equal
Is there any clarification she needs?
It's the natural tendency of things to keep going unless there's something trying to stop them.
It's usually called "inertia".
Don't get the idea from all of this that things stop unless there's something to keep them going. The truth is exactly the opposite: Things keep going unless there's something to make them stop.
Elastic potential energy is equal to the force times the distance of movement. Elastic potential energy = force x distance of displacement. Because the force is = spring constant x displacement, then the Elastic potential energy = spring constant x displacement squared.
