Yes. A body can have potential energy and vector(kinetic) energy at the same time.

What does the conservation of energy tell you about the total energy of an object?

Total energy of an isolated object is always same.


Can energy transfer to an object move a heavy object the same distance as a lighter object?

Yes, the same amount of energy transfer to two different objects can potentially move them the same distance, regardless of their weight. The key factor is the amount of energy transferred, as it is the energy that causes the movement, not the weight of the object.


Is work and kinetic energy the same?

Work and kinetic energy are related concepts but not the same. Work is the transfer of energy that results in the displacement of an object, while kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. Work can change an object's kinetic energy by transferring energy to or from it.


Can energy transfer happen between two objects when each object has the exact same energy?

When each object has the same energy, energy transfer can still occur between objects. The object with the greatest mass or traveling speed will transfer the energy.


Object a and object have the same kinetic energy but object b is moving faster what can you infer about object a?

Object a likely has a greater mass than object b since they have the same kinetic energy but object b is moving faster. This suggests that object a has more inertia compared to object b.


What will happen to kinetic energy of the object if its mass is doubled but the velocity remains the same?

If the mass of the object is doubled but the velocity remains the same, the kinetic energy of the object will also double. Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the mass of the object, so doubling the mass will result in a doubling of kinetic energy.


Describe the energy transfer is happening when a fuel is used to keep an object moving at the same speed?

it shld be like this if i'm not wrong chemical potential energy of the fuel is constantly converted to the kinetic energy of the object, which will then be converted to heat and sound energy of the object. Causing the object to move at the same speed...


Is there more gravitational potential energy in heavier object or lighter object?

There is more gravitational potential energy in a heavier object compared to a lighter object. This is because gravitational potential energy is directly proportional to an object's mass and height. Therefore, the heavier object with more mass would have a greater gravitational potential energy when raised to the same height as the lighter object.


Is potential energy the same as kinetic energy?

No, potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or state, while kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion.


Why do energy and work have the same units?

Energy and work have the same units (joules) because work is the transfer of energy from one form to another. When work is done on an object, energy is either transferred into or out of the object. This transfer of energy is what causes change in the object's state.


If an object that moves faster does it have greater potential energy?

no. if an object moves faster its kinetic energy increases but at the same time its potential energy decreases.


How can the same amount of energy be transferred if the forces acting on the object are different answers?

The work done on an object is the same regardless of the force applied, as long as the displacement is the same. This is because work is the product of force and displacement, not the force alone. Thus, the same amount of energy is transferred to the object in both scenarios.
