FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
Back
Kinetic energy is the energy that an object possesses due to its motion, calculated using the formula KE = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is potential energy?
Back
Potential energy is the stored energy of an object due to its position or state, commonly associated with gravitational potential energy, calculated using the formula PE = mgh, where m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is height.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does speed affect kinetic energy?
Back
The faster an object moves, the more kinetic energy it has, as kinetic energy is proportional to the square of its velocity.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
At what point is potential energy greatest in a falling object?
Back
Potential energy is greatest at the highest point of the object's path, before it begins to fall.
5.
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.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship between kinetic energy and mass?
Back
Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object; increasing the mass increases the kinetic energy.
7.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for calculating kinetic energy?
