What makes an object have more kinetic energy?

An object has more kinetic energy when the temperature gets hotter. The particle's speed increase and begin to flow more rapidly. An object has more kinetic energy when the temperature gets hotter. The particle's speed increase and begin to flow more rapidly.


How does temperature increase or decrease?

Temperature is the average Kinetic energy of molecules in an object. A hot object has more kinetic energy and a cold object has less kinetic energy.


Which type of energy does a moving object have?

Kinetic Energy, or KE, is the energy objects have when in basic motion. If you are talking about the movement of particles in the object, creating heat, it is IE, Internal Energy. and FYI, Potential Energy, PE, is the energy an object has in accordance to its position.


How does density effect kinetic energy?

The more dense an object is the more kinetic engery it has


When an object falls and touches ground the kinetic energy transforms to which energy?

Heat, sound and more kinetic energy as things are moved by the impact of the object.


Describe the change in kinetic energy when the temperature of an object increases?

The more an objects kinetic energy increases the more it's temperature increases. An object that is traveling at 30 miles per hour will have a higher temperature than an object traveling at 10 miles per hour. This is in part due to friction. Mostly however, it is due to the fact that kinetic energy excites atoms in the object raising the objects temperature. You could put it like this: temperature = energy + atoms. Hope this helps.


What is the best summary of kinetic energy?

The best summary of kinetic energy is energy of motion. Kinetic energy is only present where there is motion in an object. Friction generates more kinetic energy.


What An Object falls towards the ground what Happens to the potential energy of the Object?

As an object falls from a higher level to a lower level, the gravitational potential energy that it had at the higher level changes to kinetic energy. As more and more potential energy changes to more and more kinetic energy, the increase of kinetic energy shows up in the form of greater speed.


Does something have grater speed when it has more potential energy or less?

It can be a little complicated but I'll do my best to explain.Quick Vocab: potential energy - the stored energy in an object because of its position, shape, or condition. Kinetic energy - the energy of an object due to its motion. The more potential energy an object has the more Kinetic energy it will have. Basically when the object is moved the potential energy is released and becomes kinetic energy. As the kinetic energy (speed) increases the Potential energy decreases.So yes, when the potential energy decreases the speed increases.


Which has more kinetic energy- A small object or a large object moving at the speed of 25 mph?

You don't say what speed the small object has. If both have the same speed then the heavier one will have more kinetic energy.


Can an object be both kinetic and potential energy explain?

Yes, because potential energy is energy that is stored in an object. Kinetic energy is the energy that is associated with motion. So what you have to have is an object that is in motion but still has more energy that it has yet to convert into kinetic energy. A perfect example of this would be an object that is falling but has not yet hit the ground. This object would have kinetic energy because it is in motion. But it would also have potential energy because it has a ways yet to fall before it lands.


How do you find the ratio of kinetic energy?

The answer depends on what two (or more) things the ratio is meant to compare. The kinetic energy of several objects? The kinetic energy of an object compared to its total energy? The kinetic energy compared to its engine size?
