What is kinetic energy?

Kinetic energy is energy of motion.

100

What is potential energy?

Stored energy

100

what is energy?

the ability to work

100

What type of energy is produced and wasted during most energy transformations?




thermal

What is newtons first law?

Newton's First Law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. It may be seen as a statement about inertia, that objects will remain in their state of motion unless a force acts to change the motion.

200

Can kinetic energy be transferred?

Yes.

200

What is an example of potential energy?

Anything answer that includes someone of something at rest (not moving).

200

what energy is generated by moving electrons?

electrical energy

200

In what state is chemical energy always in?

potential energy

200

What is newtons second law?

Newton's First Law states that an object will remain at rest or in uniform motion in a straight line unless acted upon by an external force. It may be seen as a statement about inertia, that objects will remain in their state of motion unless a force acts to change the motion.

300

What is an example of kinetic energy?

Any answer including someone or something in motion.

300

Where does a car on a hill have the most potential energy?

Top of the hill.

300

What type of energy do we get from the rays of the sun?

radiant energy

300

What energy transformation takes place when something burns?

chemical to thermal

300

What is newtons third law?

All forces in the universe occur in equal but oppositely directed pairs. There are no isolated forces; for every external force that acts on an object there is a force of equal magnitude but opposite direction which acts back on the object which exerted that external force.

400

What two measurements can kinetic energy be calculated by?

Velocity and mass

400

Potential energy is caused due to its...


position

400

What is the standard unit of measurement for energy in physics?

Joule

400

What energy transformation happens in a toaster?

electrical to thermal

400

How many newtons law are there?

3

500

What is the standard unit of measurement for kinetic energy?

Joules.

Which of the following is a way to calculate potential energy?

A: GPE = m * g/h

B:  GPE = w * g * v

C:  GPE = m * g * h

C is the correct answer.
