6.8A and 6.9C review

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

Potential energy is the stored energy of an object due to its position or height.

Front

What does the law of conservation of energy state?

Back

The law of conservation of energy states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transformed from one form to another.

Front

Define energy in the context of physics.

Back

Energy is the ability to do work.

Front

What type of energy is associated with motion?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy associated with the motion of an object.

Front

How is kinetic energy calculated?

Back

Kinetic energy is calculated using the formula KE = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.

Front

What are the three forms of energy that a television transforms electrical energy into?

Back

A television transforms electrical energy into light, thermal energy, and sound.

Front

What is the relationship between height and potential energy?

Back

The higher an object is positioned, the greater its potential energy due to gravitational force.

Front

What is an example of a system where energy is transformed?

Back

A roller coaster is an example where potential energy is converted to kinetic energy as it descends.

Front

What is thermal energy?

Back

Thermal energy is the energy that comes from the temperature of matter, related to the motion of particles.

Front

What is sound energy?

Back

Sound energy is the energy produced by vibrating sound waves.
