What name is given to the energy stored when an object is lifted above the Earth’s surface?

• chemical potential energy

• elastic potential energy

• gravitational potential energy

• kinetic energy

What is the equation used to calculate power?

• power = energy transferresd/time

• power = energy transferred × time

• power = speed × time

• power = 0.5 × energy transferred × (time)2

What is efficiency?

• useful energy transferred by a device plus the total energy supplied to the device

• useful energy transferred by a device minus the total energy supplied to the device

• useful energy transferred by a device divided by the total energy supplied to the device

• useful energy transferred by a device multiplied by the total energy supplied to the device
