What are the 2 ways of transferring the energy?
potential energy and kenetic energy
What are 2 ways to increase kinetic energy?
move more. move things more.
What are three ways that an object can store energy?
1. By movement, kinetic energy 2. By raising its temperature, thermal energy 3. By raising it above earth's surface, potential gravitational energy
What are 2 differences between potential and kinetic energy?
Kinetic is energy of motion. Potential energy is stored energy
As the mass increases what happens to the potential energy?
It lowers proportionally to the decrease in the mass. Since potential energy = mgh, changing the "m" would completely change the potential energy. For instance if we look at g as 10 m/s^2 and h as 10m: The original mass is 10kg. (10kg)*(10m/s^2)*(10m)= 1000J If we cut the mass in half. (5kg)*(10m/s^2)*(10m)= 500J The potential energy is cut in half.

Why does streaching a rubber band increase its potential energy?
its potential energy is 1/2kx^2 -k is its spring constant and x its displacement - the higher the stretch, the more the energy which goes as the square of the stretch, x
What are three ways that an object can store energy?
1. By movement, kinetic energy 2. By raising its temperature, thermal energy 3. By raising it above earth's surface, potential gravitational energy
What are the two types of potential energy?
There is chemical potential energy, heat potential energy, elastic potential, and gravitational potential energy.
What are 2 differences between potential and kinetic energy?
Kinetic is energy of motion. Potential energy is stored energy
What are 5 energy conversions in a roller coaster?
I only know of two: 1)potential energy to kinetic energy 2)potential energy to gravitational potential energy
What are the two main forms of energy?
The two main forms of energy are Kinetic energy and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is motion energy. Potential energy is energy stored in matter.

Formula for mechanical energy?
potential energy+kinetic energy=mechanical energy
What are 2 specific types of mechanical energy?
Potential energy and Kinetic energy.
Increasing the speed of an object does what to the potential energy?
The potential (kinetic) energy increases E = (m*v2)/2
