7th Grade Mechanical Energy Study Guide

When mass is the same between objects, but the speed increases, the kinetic energy _____________________________.

Energy due to motion is known as _____________________________.

When the mass of an object is greater, then the kinetic energy will be _____________________________.

The energy due to the interactions between objects or particles when distance changes is known as (stored) _____________________________.

Stored energy due to the interactions of objects in a gravitational field is known as _________________________________________________.

The energy stored in objects that are compressed or stretched is known as _________________________________________________. Ex. rubber band

Work is:

All energy is measured in _____________________________.

What states that although energy is always transferring from one form to another, energy is not created or destroyed.

The sum of the potential energy and the kinetic energy in a system is known as
