FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or condition. For example, a ball at the top of a hill has potential energy because of its height.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion. For example, a rolling ball has kinetic energy because it is moving.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

At which point does an object have the most potential energy?

Back

An object has the most potential energy at its highest point.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

At which point does an object have the most kinetic energy?

Back

An object has the most kinetic energy at its lowest point or when it is moving the fastest.

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 gravitational potential energy?

Back

Gravitational potential energy is the potential energy an object has due to its height above the ground. It is calculated using the formula: PE = mgh (mass x gravity x height).

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is elastic potential energy?

Back

Elastic potential energy is the energy stored in objects that can be stretched or compressed, like springs or rubber bands.
