What types of forces affect kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy depends on mass and speed. It is not directly affected by any force; however, a force can, of course, make an object move faster or slower, and thus indirectly affect kinetic energy.
Which one would go faster with the same kinectic energy bowling ball or a golf ball?
Kinetic energy is a function of mass and velocity. Therefore, an object with more mass, such as a bowling ball, would have to go slower than an object with less mass, such as a golf ball. So, if given the same amount of kinetic energy, a bowling ball will go faster than a golf ball, because it has more mass.
How is energy transformed to other forms of energy?
In many different ways, depending on the specific type of energy transformation. Here are just a few examples:A stone is thrown up, getting slower and slower. Kinetic energy is transformed into potential energy. On its way down, the same stone gets faster and faster again. Potential energy is transformed to kinetic energy.Part of its kinetic energy is lost to friction. The kinetic energy is converted to heat energy.When it strikes the ground, it makes a sound. Kinetic energy is transformed to sound energy. (However, you can expect most of the energy to be converted into heat energy.)
What impacts kinetic energy more mass or velocity?
Mass because the bigger an object is the faster it will fall, and the smaller an object is the slower an object will fall.
Is pressure higher or slower when molecules move faster or slower?
Molecules move more rapidly when heated as their kinetic energy is increased so their speed increases.

Do faster atoms have more potential energy than slower atoms?
faster atoms have more kinetic energy than slower atoms do.
A molecule moves faster or slower depending on the amount of what energy?
Kinetic
Is potential energy slower than kinetic energy?
Potential energy is unreleased energy - an unmoving rock at the top of a cliff, or a stick of dynamite. Potential energy becomes kinetic energy when it is released - the rock is falling from the cliff, or the stick of dynamite is exploding. So technically the answer is yes. Kinetic even means "motion"! But be careful about saying that potential energy is "slower" than kinetic, or in trying to distinguish between the two based on how fast you perceive an object to move. Kinetic energy doesn't necessarily make an object "look" as if it is moving faster. For example, heating water in a microwave converts potential energy (a difference in voltage between the two prongs of the microwave plug) into kinetic energy (an increase in the temperature of the water), but the water doesn't "look" as if it is going "faster" until it actually boils - the actual change in velocity is at the molecular level of the water.
Is it true that slow-moving objects have more kinetic energy then fast moving objects?
Faster particles have more energy than slower particles, yes.

Do particles move slower when you remove energy?
-- If the energy of the particle is its kinetic energy, then removing kinetic energy certainly slows it down. -- If the energy of the particle is its heat energy, then that too is nothing more than the kinetic energy of its molecules. Remove heat energy from it, and the average kinetic energy of its molecules ... along with their average speed ... decreases. -- If an object started out high above the ground and then fell to the ground, it gains speed constantly while it's falling. This is not a counterexample of losing energy, since the falling object doesn't lose any energy ... it just trades potential for kinetic. So it doesn't belong in this discussion at all.
According the the kinetic-molecular theory what change in temperature is occurring if the particles of a gas begin to move more slowly?
What happens when the particles in an object begin to move slowly? its temperature decrease...A reduction in temperature. The faster the molecules move, the higher the average kinetic energy. The slower the molecules move, the lower the average kinetic energy. Lower kinetic energy = lower heat.

Mass because the bigger an object is the faster it will fall, and the smaller an object is the slower an object will fall.

Will a object will low density sink slower or faster?
Slower.
