What is gravitational potential energy?

Back

Gravitational potential energy is the energy an object possesses due to its position in a gravitational field, typically related to its height above the ground.

Front

How does height affect gravitational potential energy?

Back

Gravitational potential energy increases as the height of an object increases.

Front

What type of wave is associated with light?

Back

Light is typically associated with transverse waves.

Front

Which type of wave has the most energy: ultraviolet, visible light, infrared, or microwave?

Back

Ultraviolet waves have the most energy among these options.

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

Potential energy is the stored energy in an object due to its position or state, such as a stretched rubber band.

Front

Give an example of potential energy.

Back

A stretched rubber band is an example of potential energy.

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy of an object in motion.

Front

What is an example of energy carried by a wave?

Back

An example of energy carried by a wave is lifting a large ship.

Front

What is a transverse wave?

Back

A transverse wave is a wave in which the motion of the medium is perpendicular to the direction of the wave's travel.

Front

What is a longitudinal wave?

Back

A longitudinal wave is a wave in which the motion of the medium is parallel to the direction of the wave's travel.
