When something moves, it is because of this energy
What is mechanical
100
The constant of g in the Potential Energy equation has this value.
What is 9.8 meters per second square
100
To get something moving, you need to over come this initial friction.
What is static friction
100
The Average speed is calculated using this equation
What is the change in distance divided by the change in time
100
The standard unit of length in the metric system is this
What is a meter
200
Most commercial cleaners use this kind of energy to help clean your clothes (not referring to the motion of the washing machine).
What is chemical energy
200
In the Kinetic Energy equation, this value is squared
What is Velocity
200
Pushing a couch across a carpet (once you get it moving) is difficult because of this friction.
What is static friction
200
A speedometer measures this, which is different from the average speed
What is instantaneous speed
200
The standard unit of volume in the metric system is this
What is a liter
300
Without this type of energy, it would be very cold
What is thermal
300
A 4 kg object suspended 8 meters off of the ground has this Potential Energy
What is 313.6 Joules
300
To move a sled easier, you could put wheels on it... but then you will have to deal with this kind of Friction.
What is Rolling Friction
300
Velocity is different from speed because it is also a factor of this property
What is direction
300
The metric system is versatile by the fact that all units change by this multiplication factor, unlike the standard system which changes units by all different sorts of factors (e.g. 16 ounces in a pound)
What is a factor of 10
400
We receive this type of energy from the sun, but it is NOT how the sun is powered
What is electromagnetic energy
400
An 8 kg object moving at 7 meters per second has this Kinetic Energy
What is 196 Joules
400
Both airplanes and submarines have to deal with this kind of friction (it is not JUST for liquids)
What is fluid friction
400
Average acceleration is calculated by using this equation
What is the change in velocity divided by the change in time.
400
If I had a pile of sand with a mass of 4000 grams, it would be the same measurement as 4 of these
What is a kilogram
500
This is the type of energy that actually powers the sun (hint: heat and light COME from this, but do not cause this)
What is nuclear energy
500
An object dropped from 10 meters will strike the ground with this velocity.
What is 14 meters per second (Remember PE = KE, and you can factor out the mass)
500
A car that is subjected to friction slows to a stop. This is because friction acts as this type of motion.
What is negative acceleration
500
If an object accelerates at 12 meters per second squared for a total of 8 second, what will its velocity be (assuming that it is moving in a straight line).
