What is an example of kinetic energy transferred to potiental energy?
Any object which is moving from a lower level to a higher level is converting kenetic energy (ie climbing a set of stairs for example) to potential energy. A car which has been parked at the top of a hill has used kenetic enegry to get up there and has potential to roll down to the bottom of the hill if the brake is released.
What is the difference between potential and kinetic energy in a ven diagram?
Potential energy is energy a body has due to its position. Kinetic energy is energy a body has due to its motion.
When in a roller coaster ride does potential energy become kenetic energy?
Potential energy becomes kinetic energy when the car begins its downward descent from the top of one of the rollercoaster's peaks. It accumlates potential energy as it is lifted to the first and highest peak. It regains some of its lost potential energy each time it re-ascends one of the lower peaks, then loses potential and gains kinetic energy as it drops again.
A battery has a difference in potential energy between the positive terminal and negative terminal which units express the difference?
Volts. Volts is another term for potential.
Compare potential and kinetic energy?
The difference between potential and kinetic energy all comes down to a very simple property of the object. If an object is moving, then it has kinetic energy, or kinetic energy is the energy of movement. Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object and can be released under the right conditions.
What is the qravitation potential energy?
Kenetic energy
What comes after potential energy?
kenetic energy
What type of energy is heatkinetic or potential energy?
kenetic is energy in motion and potential energy is energy that is stored.
Is ATP kenetic energy?
No, ATP represents potential energy.
The kinetic and potential energy of particles of a substance?
kenetic energy
When you throw a ball potential energy becomes?
kenetic energy
When you walk then stop is that potential energy?
No, kenetic energy is while your walking , then when u stop you have potential energy to walk forword. So it is kenetic even when you stop just not when you are stoped.
Does kenetic energy exceed Gravitational potential energy?
That depends on the circumstances.
What are the 2 ways of transferring the energy?
potential energy and kenetic energy
What kind of energy do you burn when playing basketball?
Kenetic, potential.
When do you substract potential or kenetic energy?
you can subtract either potential o kinetic energy from the total energy to find the other
What statement describes the potential energy diagram of an exothermic reaction?
The difference in potential energy between the reactants and products.
