When faster moving and slower moving particles collide which particles gain energy?
It depends upon the mass of the particles also. Assuming equal mass, then the slower moving particle gains some energy, and the faster moving particle loses energy. However, if the slower moving particle had greater mass, it could transfer energy to the faster moving particle.
What are two main types of potential energy?
loss of PE and gain of PE
Does condensation lose or gain energy?
Condensation gives off energy. Matter is moving from the higher energy vapor state to a lower energy liquid state. This is an exothermic process.
An asteroid that is moving farther away from the sun is gaining what type of energy?
While getting farther from the Sun in its orbit, an asteroid (or other object) will gain potential energy, and lose kinetic energy.
Can an object gain more energy?
Sure, you can add energy to an object. For example, you can heat an object up (to have it gain heat energy), you can raise it (to have it gain gravitational potential energy), or you can make it move (to have it gain kinetic energy). In each case, the energy has to come from somewhere.
Does an electron lose or gain energy while moving up and down an energy level?
depends. Moving from an inner level to an outer level, the e- absorbs energy. Moving from an outer level to an inner level, the e- loses energy.
Skiers are pulled up hill by a moving ski slope when they reach the top of the hill they ski down what type of energy do the skier gain as they go up hill?
Once the skiers go uphill by a cable car or lift, they gain potential energy. This potential energy is converted into kinetic energy once the skiers start to ski down the slope.
Why does it make more energy to stop a moving ball than the energy required to keep it moving?
The natural tendency of a moving object is to keep moving. And it doesn't really require energy to stop it; in fact, in theory, you can gain energy from it. What is required is a force.
When do liquids gain kinetic energy?
kinetic energy is energy in the form of motion... in other words a liquid must be moving to have any kinetic energy
What kind of energy does water gain it travels down a waterfall?
Kinetic Energy.
Where do hurricanes gain and lose energy?
I think it gains by moving to a diffrent place . also they lose energy when it has no more energy like in the oean.
Can you gain weight by not moving?
You can actually gain weight while sitting but if you walked before you said down you probably cant gain wieght

Is it true electrons gain energy as they move down the chain?
No. Electrons gain energy as they move up the chain, i.e. in more outer shells.
Does condensation lose or gain energy?
Condensation gives off energy. Matter is moving from the higher energy vapor state to a lower energy liquid state. This is an exothermic process.
Can mechanical energy gain be explained as energy generated by an organism if it is the thing moving For example the mechanical energy gain of a bird after taking off from a perch after some time.?
Yes, the energy must be generated by the organism in this case. Organisms typically convert chemical energy (from the food they eat) to mechanical energy.
