What is potential energy?

Back

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or state. It has the potential to be converted into kinetic energy.

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion. It depends on the mass of the object and its velocity.

Front

How does height affect potential energy?

Back

The higher an object is positioned, the greater its potential energy due to the gravitational force acting on it.

Front

What is the relationship between potential and kinetic energy?

Back

Potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy when an object moves, and vice versa, in a closed system.

Front

What is a magnetic force?

Back

A magnetic force is the attraction or repulsion that arises between charged particles due to their motion.

Front

What happens to potential energy when magnets repel each other?

Back

When magnets repel each other, the potential energy increases as they move apart.

Front

What is the role of a slingshot's elastic in energy storage?

Back

The elastic of a slingshot stores potential energy when stretched, which can be converted to kinetic energy when released.

Front

How can you increase the potential energy between two magnets?

Back

To increase the potential energy, move the magnets further apart from each other.

Front

What is the effect of distance on magnetic force?

Back

The magnetic force decreases as the distance between two magnets increases.

Front

What is the principle of conservation of energy?

Back

The principle of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.
