Energy Assessment

Front

What is kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. It is the energy an object possesses due to its movement.

Front

Which two letters have the most kinetic energy: W & Y or X & Z?

Back

W & Y have the most kinetic energy.

Front

What is energy transformation?

Back

Energy transformation is the process of changing energy from one form to another, such as from potential energy to kinetic energy.

Front

Which device primarily uses electrical energy?

Back

A light bulb primarily uses electrical energy.

Front

What is motion?

Back

Motion is the change in an object's position or orientation over time relative to a reference point.

Front

What is potential energy?

Back

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

Front

What is the formula for kinetic energy?

Back

The formula for kinetic energy (KE) is KE = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.

Front

What is the relationship between mass and kinetic energy?

Back

Kinetic energy increases with mass; if mass increases, kinetic energy increases if velocity remains constant.

Front

What is the difference between kinetic and potential energy?

Back

Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is stored energy based on an object's position.

Front

What is work in terms of energy?

Back

Work is the transfer of energy that occurs when a force is applied to an object, causing it to move.
