Is this potential or kinetic energy?

Potential Energy

100

Object that is moving has... (______) Energy.

Kinetic

100

what is the density if the mass is 4g and the volume is 2 mL

D= M/V 4/2= 2 g/mL
100

Ball on top of a hill has MORE OR LESS potential energy?

The higher the object the more potential energy

200

A stationary roller coaster is at the top of the track. What kind of energy does it have? 

Potential energy

200

Speed affects Kinetic energy; the faster the movement the ------- the kinetic energy.

the faster the kinetic energy

200

Calculate the density of a cube with a volume of 12 cmand a mass of 60 grams

D= M/V

D=60/12

D=5 g/cm3

200

Height affects potential energy. What else affects potential energy?

Mass or weight

300

Give an example of potential energy

anything not moving or stored

300
Give an example of Kinetic energy 

anything that moves

300

An object was placed in a graduated cylinder measured at 50 mL. The water rose to 60 mL. What is the density of the object if it has a mass of 90 grams?

Water displacement= Vf - Vi

60- 50= 10 mL = volume

D=m/v= 90/10

D= 9 g/mL

300

A ball is rolling down a hill. What kind of energy does it have?

Kinetic because it is moving

400

Is this potential or kinetic energy? Why

Kinetic Energy 

400

As a roller coaster is rolling down the track, is it transforming/converting


It is losing potential energy and gaining kinetic energy 

400

Determine the density in g/cm3 of a

mineral that has a volume of 4 cm3 and a

mass of 24.0 g.

D= M/V

D=24/4= 6 g/cm3

400

What has more PE?

Watermelon of mass 18kg ? or Feather of mass 3kg 

the watermelon because it has more weight. 

The MORE mass the MORE Potential Energy

500

What point on the roller coaster has the GREATEST Potential energy and WHY?

Point A because it is the highest

500

When a roller coaster is going up the hill the energy is transforming/ converting

It is losing Kinetic and gaining potential energy

500

What is the density of a cube if it has ONE side measurement of 5 cm and a mass of 10 g. (Hint the answer is not 2)

V= L x W x H

= 5 x 5 x 5= 125

D= M/V 10/125

D= 0.08

500

What has least potential energy? Why?

A ball weighing 25 lbs or a box weighing 5 lbs.


The feather because it has less mass (weight)

The less mass the less potential energy
