What type of energy does a slingshot have when it is held back?

Back

Potential energy

Front

What is the law of conservation of energy?

Back

Energy cannot be created or destroyed, only converted from one form to another.

Front

Which of the following is NOT an example of potential energy? A diver on the edge of a diving board, A parachute falling to the ground, A pencil sitting on a desk, A car parked in a parking lot of a mall

Back

A parachute falling to the ground.

Front

What is the unit of measurement for potential energy?

Back

Joules

Front

What can potential energy be transformed into?

Back

Kinetic energy

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

The energy of an object in motion.

Front

Give an example of potential energy in everyday life.

Back

A book on a shelf has potential energy due to its height.

Front

What happens to potential energy as an object falls?

Back

It is converted into kinetic energy.

Front

What is the formula for calculating gravitational potential energy?

Back

Potential Energy = mass × gravity × height (PE = mgh)

Front

What is the difference between potential energy and kinetic energy?

Back

Potential energy is stored energy based on position, while kinetic energy is energy of motion.
