What type of energy does a baseball held by a pitcher have?

Back

Potential energy.

Front

What type of energy does a baseball flying through the air have?

Back

Kinetic energy.

Front

What happens to kinetic energy as the speed of an object increases?

Back

The kinetic energy increases.

Front

Where is maximum potential energy on a roller coaster?

Back

At the top of a big hill.

Front

Which ball has greater potential energy when sitting on a shelf, a bowling ball or a softball?

Back

The bowling ball, because it has more mass.

Front

Define potential energy.

Back

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or state.

Front

Define kinetic energy.

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and potential energy?

Back

Greater mass results in greater potential energy if height is constant.

Front

What is the formula for calculating kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic Energy = 1/2 * mass * velocity^2.

Front

How does height affect potential energy?

Back

Higher objects have greater potential energy due to increased height.
