Energy of position is called what?
Potential Energy- is the energy inside an object because of the position
Is the energy that an object has due to its motion or position?
Motion: kinetic energy. Position: potential energy.
What is energy due to position or condition?
Potential energy is the energy that an object has due to its position or condition. Energy is a property of objects.
What type of energy is associated with the position of an object?
Potential energy is associated with the position of an object.
What type of energy is the energy of position?
Potential energy.
What is a wave of energy that is released when land moves suddenly?
A seismic wave.
What are large emissions of radiation that occur when a buildup of magnetic energy is suddenly released in the solar atmosphere?
solar fussion
What causes the strings on a bowed instrument vibrate?
The strings of an instrument are taught thus when bent they take in force. When they are released the potential energy transforms to kinetic. the strings want to move back into the position that is the least tight. They release their energy in movement and sound.
What is potential energy as far as being related to electricity?
Potential energy is stored energy, that can be released at any time. Also, potential energy is energy of position.
How does the elastic rebound theory explain the occurrence of earthquakes?
The sudden return of elastically deformed rock to sit original shape is called elastic rebound. Elastic rebound happens when stress on rock along a fault becomes so grat that the rock breaks or fails. This failure causes the rocks on either side of the fault to jerk past one another. During this sudden motion, large amounts of energy are released. This energy travels through rock as seismic waves. These waves cause earthquakes. The strength of an earthquake is related to the amount of energy that is released during elastic rebound.
What is the point in earth's interior where the energy released causes an earthquake called?
The Tectonic Plates.
What causes a substance to feel hotter because energy is released?
Candy Corn Popping
What does cellular respiration allows an organism to get energy from?
In case of the cellular respiration, glucose molecule is burned out to carbon bi oxide and water. In chemical burning you get heat released suddenly. In case of biological oxidation, the energy is released in step wise fashion. Most of the energy is trapped in ATP molecule. Some of the energy is released as heat.
How does kinetic energy change into potential energy?
An object has potential energy if it has been pushed into a certain position, against a certain type of force (a so-called "conservative force"). The potential energy will automatically be "released" when the object goes back to a lower-energy position (meaning, in this case, less potential energy); in that case, the potential energy will quite often be converted into kinetic energy, since the force tends to accelerate the object. One example is when an object in a high position (and which therefore has gravitational potential energy) falls down. Another example is when a spring is released.
What causes energy to be released inside the sun?
A fusion of hydrogen atoms forms helium and formes a large amount of mass into energy.
What causes the change in the marble's energy when it is released from a different height?
It gains kinetic energy while losing potential energy. There is also some additional energy loss due to entropy,
How is a grasshoppers third leg adapted for jumping?
