Study Guide 7-B

Front

What happens to an object's energy when it is pushed?

Back

Pushing an object increases its motion, which increases its energy.

Front

How can energy transfer help in everyday activities?

Back

Energy transfer can be used in activities like playing sports, where energy is transferred during collisions.

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy an object has due to its motion.

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

Potential energy is the stored energy in an object due to its position or state.

Front

What is energy transfer?

Back

Energy transfer is the process of energy moving from one object to another or changing from one form to another.

Front

What happens to energy during a collision?

Back

During a collision, kinetic energy can be transferred from one object to another, and some energy may be converted to sound energy.

Front

What is the position of an object?

Back

The position of an object is where it is located in space.

Front

What is an example of energy changing forms?

Back

When electrical energy from a battery changes into light energy to turn on a bulb.

Front

What is the relationship between motion and energy?

Back

Motion is a form of energy; the more an object moves, the more kinetic energy it has.

Front

What is sound energy?

Back

Sound energy is the energy produced by vibrating sound waves.
