FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is Potential Energy (PE)?
Back
Potential Energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or configuration, commonly gravitational potential energy, calculated as PE = mgh, where m is mass, g is acceleration due to gravity, and h is height.
3.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does potential energy change during free fall?
Back
During free fall, an object's potential energy decreases as it falls to a lower height.
4.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to kinetic energy when an object speeds up?
Back
When an object speeds up, its kinetic energy increases.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the work-energy principle?
Back
The work-energy principle states that the work done on an object is equal to the change in its kinetic energy.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for calculating work done?
Back
Work done (W) is calculated as W = Fd cos(θ), where F is the force applied, d is the distance moved, and θ is the angle between the force and the direction of motion.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship between work and energy?
Back
Work is a transfer of energy; when work is done on an object, energy is transferred to or from that object.
