What is kinetic energy?

Back

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

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

Potential energy is stored energy due to an object's position or state. It has the potential to do work.

Front

Which type of energy is greatest at the top of a roller coaster?

Back

Potential energy is greatest at the top of a roller coaster before the first drop.

Front

What type of energy does a moving car have?

Back

A moving car has kinetic energy because it is in motion.

Front

What type of energy does a stationary object have?

Back

A stationary object can have potential energy if it is positioned in a way that it can move or fall.

Front

Give an example of kinetic energy.

Back

An example of kinetic energy is a person running or a ball being thrown.

Front

Give an example of potential energy.

Back

An example of potential energy is a drawn bow or a book on a shelf.

Front

What happens to potential energy as an object falls?

Back

As an object falls, its potential energy decreases while its kinetic energy increases.

Front

What is mechanical energy?

Back

Mechanical energy is the sum of kinetic and potential energy in an object.

Front

How does energy transform when a roller coaster goes down a hill?

Back

As the roller coaster goes down a hill, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.
