How does height effect the potential energy of an object?
the higher an object is the more potential energy it has
How does increasing speed affect potential energy?
Increasing the speed will increase the KINETIC energy, not the potential energy. Of course, the potential energy may eventually be converted into kinetic energy, for example if the object moves upwards.
Increasing the speed of an object does what to the potential energy?
The potential (kinetic) energy increases E = (m*v2)/2
What increasing the speed of an object does what to the potential energy?
The potential (kinetic) energy increases E = (m*v2)/2
How does gravitational potential energy of an object increase?
On Earth, Gravitational Potential Energy (GPE) would increase with an increasing altitude.
What is the effect of an object's height on it's potential energy?
Generally, the higher an object goes, the higher its potential energy will be. This is because higher object will have more energy when it falls.
What happens to the potential energy as the kinetic of an object increase?
An object's potential energy doesn't depend on its speed. You can do anything you like with the object's speed, and it has no effect on potential energy.
What is accomplished when an object is moved by a force?
When an object is moved by a force, work is done, increasing or decreasing its kinetic energy, often but not always decreasing or increasing its potential energy.
Does speed affect gravitational potential energy of an object?
Does speed 'effect' the gravitational potential energy of an object? No, but gravitational potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy - so the gravitational potential energy can effect the speed. Ep = mgh Energy Potential = mass * 9.81 (gravity) * height Speed / Velocity is absent from that equation.
What effects gravitational potential energy?
PE=mgh So the 2 factors that effect gravitational potential energy are: -Mass of the object. -The height of the object.
When you lift an object energy is transferred to an object which gives the object?
When you lift an object, the energy transferred to the object is called gravitational potential energy.
How is energy preserved as an object falls?
Potential (gravitational) energy is transformed into kinetic energy. So, for instance, if you lift an object, you're storing energy which will act on the object once you let it go (increasing velocity).
