An oscillating spring has the least kinetic energy where?
What is the maximum elongation?
200
"Kinetic" is derived from this Greek word.
What is κίνησις kinesis?
200
A falling object gains this type of energy.
What is kinetic energy?
200
Your energy is 2 J. You increase your speed from 2 to 4 m/s. This is your new energy.
What is 8 J?
300
Energy held in molecular or atomic bonds.
What is chemical potential energy?
300
A spring's elastic potential energy is originally 2 joules. You stretch the spring from 2 to 4 cm. The spring now has this amount of energy.
What is 8 joules?
300
This female scientist showed that kinetic energy is proportional to the velocity squared.
Who is Emile de Chatelet?

You lift an object and give it this type of energy.
What is potential energy?
300
A car accelerates from 0 to 30 mph. Then, it went from 30 to 60 mph. This segment required more energy.
What is 30 to 60 mph?
400
This type of energy is related to Hooke's Law.
What is elastic potential energy?
