Brainpop-Kinetic Energy

Kinetic and potential energy are the two types of energy that relate to:

• change

• friction

• density

• motion

Which of these has the most potential energy?

• 
• 
• 
• 

What is potential energy?

• stored energy of an object due to its position or condition

• energy that an object has due to its motion

• energy an object has due to its speed

• energy an object has due to its volume

What is kinetic energy?

• stored energy of an object due to its position or condition

• energy that an object has due to its motion

• energy an object has due to its existence

• energy an object has due to its volume

Which passenger has the most potential energy?

• A

• B

• C

• D

The amount of kinetic energy of an object has depends on its

• mass and volume

• volume and friction

• mass and speed

• speed and density

Which of the following has the most kinetic energy?

• a car travelling at 80 kilometers per hour (kph)

• a huge truck travelling at 80 kph

• a cheetah running at 80 kph

• a motorcycle travelling at 80 kph

When is kinetic energy transferred from object to object?

• when those objects pass one another

• when the first object outweighs (weights more than) the second object

• when the first object has more potential energy than the second object

• when those objects collide

In a generator, kinetic energy is transformed into:

• motion

• potential energy

• electricty

• solar power

There is a finite amount of energy in the universe. What does this mean?

• energy is created and destroyed all the time

• there is a limited amount of energy in the universe

• stars generate most of the energy in the universe

• dark matter absorbs most of the energy in the universe
