FLASHCARD QUESTION
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 the speed at which it is moving.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does height affect potential energy?
Back
The higher an object is positioned, the more potential energy it has. This is because potential energy is directly related to height.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for calculating kinetic energy?
Back
The formula for kinetic energy (KE) is KE = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to potential energy as an object falls?
Back
As an object falls, its potential energy decreases while its kinetic energy increases, assuming no energy is lost to air resistance.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
At what point does a pendulum have maximum kinetic energy?
Back
A pendulum has maximum kinetic energy at the lowest point of its swing.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Can kinetic energy be converted to potential energy?
Back
Yes, kinetic energy can be converted to potential energy, such as when an object is thrown upwards.
