Back

Potential Energy

Front

At which point is kinetic energy greatest in a moving object?

Back

At the lowest point of its motion.

Front

What is Potential Energy?

Back

Energy stored in an object due to its position or state.

Front

Give an example of Kinetic Energy.

Back

A rolling ball.

Front

What is the formula for calculating Kinetic Energy?

Back

KE = 1/2 mv² (where m is mass and v is velocity).

Front

What is Gravitational Potential Energy?

Back

Potential energy related to an object's height above the ground.

Front

How does height affect Potential Energy?

Back

Higher objects have more Potential Energy.
