Quiz on Potential and Kinetic Energy

What is potential energy?

• Energy in motion.

• Stored energy due to position.

• Energy that cannot be stored.

• Energy that is always moving.

What does potential energy depend on?

• The color of the object.

• The position of the object.

• The temperature of the object.

• The size of the object.

What happens to kinetic energy when you drop a ball?

• It decreases.

• It stays the same.

• It increases as the ball moves.

• It disappears.

What is the relationship between potential and kinetic energy?

• Potential energy is motion relative.

• Kinetic energy is position relative.

• Potential energy is position relative, and kinetic energy is motion relative.

• They are both motion relative.
