Energy and Motion Review

Front

What is speed?

Back

Speed is the distance traveled per unit of time, typically measured in meters per second (m/s).

Front

How do you calculate speed?

Back

Speed = Distance / Time.

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion.

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

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

Front

What does a constant speed graph look like?

Back

A constant speed graph is a straight line that shows equal distance covered over equal time intervals.

Front

What does an acceleration graph represent?

Back

An acceleration graph shows how the speed of an object changes over time.

Front

What is the unit of speed?

Back

The unit of speed is meters per second (m/s).

Front

What does it mean if an object is not moving?

Back

If an object is not moving, it has a speed of 0 m/s.

Front

What is the formula for kinetic energy?

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for potential energy?

Back

Potential Energy = mass * gravity * height.
