FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is kinetic energy?
Back
Kinetic energy is the energy of an object due to its motion. It is calculated using the formula KE = 1/2 mv², where m is mass and v is velocity.
2.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is potential energy?
Back
Potential energy is stored energy that has the potential to do work. It is often associated with the position of an object in a gravitational field.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for calculating kinetic energy?
Back
KE = 1/2 mv², where KE is kinetic energy, m is mass, and v is velocity.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the formula for calculating potential energy?
Back
PE = mgh, where PE is potential energy, m is mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is height.
5.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
How does height affect potential energy?
Back
Potential energy increases with height. The higher an object is, the more potential energy it has due to its position in a gravitational field.
6.
FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What happens to kinetic energy as an object speeds up?
Back
As an object speeds up, its kinetic energy increases because kinetic energy is proportional to the square of its velocity.

FLASHCARD QUESTION
Front
What is the relationship between kinetic and potential energy in a roller coaster?
Back
In a roller coaster, potential energy is highest at the top of a hill and converts to kinetic energy as the coaster descends, increasing its speed.
