Amplify- Harnessing Human Energy

Front

What is stored energy?

Back

Potential energy is stored energy that has the potential to do work.

Front

What type of energy is associated with motion?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy due to motion.

Front

What is nuclear power?

Back

Nuclear power is harnessing energy from the decay of Uranium atoms.

Front

Can objects create their own energy?

Back

False. Objects cannot make their own energy; they can only convert energy from one form to another.

Front

What role does a flywheel play in energy transfer?

Back

A flywheel transfers energy to the ball launcher.

Front

What is the difference between potential and kinetic energy?

Back

Potential energy is stored energy, while kinetic energy is energy in motion.

Front

What is an example of potential energy?

Back

A rock at the top of a hill has potential energy due to its position.

Front

What is an example of kinetic energy?

Back

A moving car has kinetic energy due to its motion.

Front

What is the principle of energy conservation?

Back

Energy cannot be created or destroyed; it can only be transformed from one form to another.

Front

What is biomass energy?

Back

Biomass energy is energy produced from organic materials, such as plants and animal waste.
