Kinetic and Potential Energy Review

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy an object has due to its motion.

Front

What type of energy do all objects have?

Back

All objects have potential energy.

Front

What does potential energy turn into when objects move?

Back

Potential energy turns into kinetic energy.

Front

True or False: Moving atoms have kinetic energy.

Back

True.

Front

What type of energy do moving objects have?

Back

Moving objects have kinetic energy.

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

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

Front

Can potential energy be converted to kinetic energy?

Back

Yes, potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy when an object moves.

Front

Give an example of kinetic energy.

Back

A rolling ball has kinetic energy because it is in motion.

Front

Give an example of potential energy.

Back

A book on a shelf has potential energy due to its height.

Front

What happens to the kinetic energy of an object if it speeds up?

Back

The kinetic energy increases as the object's speed increases.
