Front

What is potential energy?

Back

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

Front

What does it mean to attract objects?

Back

To attract means to pull objects toward one another.

Front

How does moving a magnetic cart affect potential energy?

Back

Moving a magnetic cart closer to a magnet increases the potential energy of the system.

Front

What happens to kinetic energy when speed increases?

Back

The kinetic energy increases as the speed of an object increases.

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion.

Front

What is the relationship between speed and kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the speed of an object.

Front

What is the effect of distance on potential energy in a magnetic field?

Back

The potential energy increases as the distance between two magnets decreases.

Front

What is the definition of a magnetic field?

Back

A magnetic field is a region around a magnet where magnetic forces can be observed.

Front

What is the principle of conservation of energy?

Back

The principle of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.

Front

What is the formula for calculating kinetic energy?

Back

The formula for kinetic energy (KE) is KE = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.
