Forms of Energy - TCI Forces and Energy Lesson 7

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion.

Front

How does mass affect kinetic energy?

Back

As the mass of an object increases, its kinetic energy increases.

Front

Where is maximum potential energy on a roller coaster?

Back

At the top of a big hill.

Front

When does an object have NO kinetic energy?

Back

When it's at rest.

Front

What does the Law of Conservation of Energy state?

Back

Energy cannot be created or destroyed.

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

Potential energy is stored energy based on an object's position or state.

Front

Give an example of kinetic energy.

Back

A moving car or a running athlete.

Front

What happens to kinetic energy when speed increases?

Back

Kinetic energy increases as speed increases.

Front

What is the formula for kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy (KE) = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.

Front

What type of energy is associated with height?

Back

Potential energy.
