Kinetic and Potential Energy Review.

Front

What kind of energy is in a rock at the edge of a cliff?

Back

Potential energy is stored energy based on an object's position.

Front

What kind of energy is in a person climbing a ladder?

Back

Both potential and kinetic energy are present; potential energy increases with height, while kinetic energy is due to motion.

Front

Energy due to motion is ____________ energy.

Back

Kinetic energy.

Front

At which point is kinetic energy greatest? (W, X, Y, Z)

Back

Kinetic energy is greatest at point X, where the object is in motion.

Front

Kinetic energy depends on ____________ and ____________.

Back

Kinetic energy depends on mass and speed.

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

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

Front

Give an example of kinetic energy.

Back

A moving car has kinetic energy due to its motion.

Front

What happens to potential energy as an object falls?

Back

As an object falls, its potential energy decreases while its kinetic energy increases.

Front

What is the formula for kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy (KE) = 1/2 * mass (m) * speed (v)².

Front

What is the relationship between height and potential energy?

Back

Potential energy increases with height; the higher an object is, the more potential energy it has.
