FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is Potential Energy?
Back
Potential Energy is the stored energy in an object due to its position or state. For example, an object at a height has gravitational potential energy.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does height affect Potential Energy?
Back
The higher an object is, the more potential energy it has. This is because potential energy is calculated as mass x gravity x height.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to Potential Energy when an object falls?
Back
As an object falls, its potential energy decreases while its kinetic energy increases, as it converts potential energy into kinetic energy.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Give an example of Kinetic Energy in everyday life.
Back
A moving car, a running dog, or a thrown ball are all examples of kinetic energy.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Give an example of Potential Energy in everyday life.
Back
A book on a shelf, a drawn bow, or water stored in a dam are examples of potential energy.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship between Kinetic and Potential Energy?
Back
Kinetic and potential energy are forms of mechanical energy. They can convert into each other; for example, when a roller coaster goes down a hill, potential energy converts to kinetic energy.
