Use the formula for kinetic energy: KE = (1/2) mv2 (one-half times the mass times speed squared). Clearly, the amount of kinetic energy depends both on the mass and on the speed of the object.

What energy has to do with potential and kinetic energy?
Kinetic Energy+Potential Energy=Mechanical Energy (KE+PE=ME)
Is a tractor pulling plow kinetic energy or potential energy?
Kinetic energy because kinetic energy moves and potential energy stays in place
Object hanging on a tree a kinetic or potential energy?
Potential energy is the energy contained in the position of an object, so object hanging on a tree would be potential energy.
Is a rock potential or kinetic energy?
It has potential energy but when it is in movement it will possess kinetic energy
Is gravitational energy kinetic?
Gravitational energy is the potential energyassociated with the gravitational field.
Is rolling down a hill potential or kinetic energy?
Yes, because potential energy is energy stored but kinetic is energy in motion.
What are the two types of mechanical energy?
Potential energy and kinetic energy. mechanical energy is the energy of motion(kinetic energy)or the potential of motion(potential energy) so i would say-kinetic and potential energy
What are the two main forms of energy?
The two main forms of energy are Kinetic energy and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is motion energy. Potential energy is energy stored in matter.
What happens to the potential energy as the kinetic of an object increase?
An object's potential energy doesn't depend on its speed. You can do anything you like with the object's speed, and it has no effect on potential energy.
An avalanche demonstrates what kind of energy conversion?
Gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy
What is the total kinetic energy and potential energy?
It is the sum of potential and kinetic energy.
What are the two basic types of energy?
There are two main types of energy which is kinetic and potential energy.. Kinetic energy is an energy associated with motion.. while the potential energy is an energy stored with the position of an object, or its chemical composition.
If an object's mechanical energy is equal to its potential energy how much kinetic energy does it have?
Mechanical Energy= Potential energy+ Kinetic energy, so for the mechanical energy to be equal to be potential energy, the kinetic energy must be 0.
How potential energy is changed to kinetic energy?
potential energy is changed to kinetic energy when you push.
Potential energy is frequently converted to kinetic energy. Kinetic energy?
can be converted to potential energy.
How is potential energy change to kinetic energy?
potential energy is changed to kinetic energy when you push.
What type of energy is kinetic and potential?
Kinetic and potential energy are types of mechanical energy.
