Module 1 Science Review

Front

What happens to heat production when there is more friction between colliding objects?

Back

More heat is produced during a collision.

Front

Is it true that the amount of kinetic energy an object has is related to its mass and speed/velocity?

Back

True

Front

What does the law of conservation of energy state?

Back

Energy cannot be created or destroyed.

Front

How does energy change when work is done on an object?

Back

The object could move or change.

Front

What data should be gathered to measure how fast a marble travels?

Back

How fast the marble travels.

Front

What is friction?

Back

Friction is a force that opposes motion between two surfaces in contact.

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

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

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for kinetic energy?

Back

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

Front

What is energy transformation?

Back

Energy transformation is the process of changing energy from one form to another.
