Use to help study for your quiz on What is Energy?
Question | Answer |
---|---|
Kinetic Energy Formula | Kinetic Energy = Mass x Speed^2 |
Gravitational Potential Energy Formula | Gravitational Potential Energy = Weight x Height |
Energy | Energy is the ability to do work and cause a change. |
Joules | The measure of work and energy. |
Transferred energy | When you do work on an object, some of your energy is _________________________ to that object. |
Power | Power is the rate at which work is done and energy is transferred. |
Potential Energy | the energy that results from the position or shape of an object |
Elastic Potential Energy | the energy created by something that is being compressed or stretched. Like a rubber band being stretched. |
Kinetic Energy | the energy an object has due to its motion. Mass and speed will affect this energy. |
Affect Kinetic energy | Speed has a greater affect then mass. |
Gravitational Potential Energy | the energy related to the height of an object. Like a person on top of a mountain. |
