QuestionAnswer
is force applied through a distance. Work
is a device that changes the force or increases the motion from work. Machine
is a machine that does work with only one movement of the machine. Simple Machine
is a combination of two or more simple machines. Compound Machine
is the ratio of output work to input work. Efficiency
is the ratio of the output force to input force. Mechanical Advantages
is the ability to cause change. Energy
is anything around which you can imagine a boundary. System
is energy due to motion. Kinetic Energy
is energy that is stored due to the interactions between objects. Potential Energy
is energy that is stored by compressing or stretching an object. Elastic Potential Energy
is energy that is due to chemical bonds. Chemical Potential Energy
is energy that is due to the gravitational forces between objects. Gravitational Potential Energy
states that energy cannot be created or destroyed. Law of Conservation of Energy
is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy of the objects in a system. Mechanical Energy
is the rate at which energy is converted. Power
Thermal Energy is measured in _____. Jules
The law of_____states that energy in a system can change forms but can never be created or destroyed. Conservation of Energy
The______energy of an object with height. Potential
The mechanical energy of a coconut falling from a tree_____. is constant
Mechanical energy is the total kinetic and_____energies in a system. Potential
_____can cause kinetic energy to change into thermal energy. Friction
Green plants convert light energy from the sun into_____. Chemical Energy
MxGxH= GPE
1/2MxV(squared)= KE
1. ) A carpenter lifts a 5kg piece of wood to his shoulder 2m above the ground. He then sits the wood on his truck at 1.5m above the ground and makes his delivery going 10m/s. 3. What is the wood's kinetic energy during the delivery? 5x9.8x2= 98 Jules
2.) What is the potential energy on the truck? 5x9.8x1.5=73.5 Jules
3.) What is the wood's kinetic energy during the delivery? ½5x10=25 Jules
4.) If the wood drops from the carpenter shoulder what would its maximum kinetic energy be? ½ 5x9.8=24.5 J
5.) Why is the kinetic energy of the lumber higher on the truck during the delivery than when it drops from the carpenter's shoulder. Truck is going faster and it has more kinetic energy.

Use these flashcards to help memorize information. Look at the large card and try to recall what is on the other side. Then click the card to flip it. If you knew the answer, click the green Know box. Otherwise, click the red Don't know box.

When you've placed seven or more cards in the Don't know box, click "retry" to try those cards again.

If you've accidentally put the card in the wrong box, just click on the card to take it out of the box.

You can also use your keyboard to move the cards as follows:

If you are logged in to your account, this website will remember which cards you know and don't know so that they are in the same box the next time you log in.

When you need a break, try one of the other activities listed below the flashcards like Matching, Snowman, or Hungry Bug. Although it may feel like you're playing a game, your brain is still making more connections with the information to help you out.
