What is the energy that an object has because it is moving?

Back

Kinetic energy

Front

When moving a magnet against a magnetic force, what type of energy is stored in the magnetic field?

Back

Potential energy

Front

What happens when two magnetic toy trains are placed close to each other?

Back

They will move away from each other because the magnetic force will push them apart.

Front

What happens to the potential energy when a magnetic toy train is moved away from a stationary magnet?

Back

The potential energy increases because the train moves against the magnetic force.

Front

What is the relationship between kinetic energy and the speed of an object?

Back

Kinetic energy increases with the square of the speed of the object.
