Sure, you can add energy to an object. For example, you can heat an object up (to have it gain heat energy), you can raise it (to have it gain gravitational potential energy), or you can make it move (to have it gain kinetic energy). In each case, the energy has to come from somewhere.

How does potential energy gain?
Elastic potential energy is gained the more it is stretched (like a catapault or rubber band) Gravitational potential energy is increased if the object is raised higher up (further away from the centre of gravity)
How do objects gain energy?
An object can gain kinetic energy by accelerating or gravitic energy by increasing height, among other things.
What two things do potential and kinetic energy need to gain more energy?
Well, basically, the higher an object is above the ground, the more potential energy it has. For kinetic energy, the amount of energy depends on the amount of force.
What force causes a falling object to gain kinetic energy?
gravity
What type of energy an object with more mass have?
An object with more mass than another object has a greater amount of energy in itself (E=MC squared). it also has more kinetic energy if it is moving and more potential energy in a gravity field.

How can potencial energy change to kinetic energy?
yes it can, if you move the object it will gain kinetic energy
Explain how the motion of particles in an object changes when its temperature increases?
When temperature increases the particles of an object gain more heat energy, therefore move faster colliding with each other more.
What does an object do when it absorbs all light that strikes it?
the atom of the object will gain kinetic energy from the light
What force causes a falling object to gain kinetic energy?
gravity
When an object reflects light does it gain or lose energy?
That would depend on whether the object was active or passive. A passive reflector would gain some energy from the photons during the collision / interaction. An active reflector would first gain some energy then lose more as it pumps energy into the photons, boosting them. Although, at present, I can't think of an example of an active reflector of light, an example concept would be the flipper in a pinball game.
How volcanoes gain more energy?
Volcanoes gain energy from the hot magma inside it
How does the drop height of an object affect the size of the crater it forms?
the higher something is the more potential energy it has. when you drop it that turns into kinetic energy & u gain more momentum. that creates a bigger impact on what the crater hits.
What gives something potintial energy?
Potential energy is the theory that an object has energy that can be released. Gravitational Potential Energy is an example of this. GPE is obtained as you gain height, the more height, the more GPE.
What type of energy an object with more mass have?
An object with more mass than another object has a greater amount of energy in itself (E=MC squared). it also has more kinetic energy if it is moving and more potential energy in a gravity field.
