The Force of attraction the exists between two objects?
kenetic
What energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in a system of objects?
The sum of the potential and kinetic energy of large-scale objects in a system is the Hamiltonian.
What friction opposes the motion of sliding objects?
The force that opposes objects already in motion is Kinetic Friction.Static Friction prevents objects from starting to move when originally at rest.
What is the sum of the kinetic and potential energy of large scale objects in a system?
The sum of the potential and kinetic energy of large-scale objects in a system is the Hamiltonian.
Why do object at high elevations have more potential energy than objects at low elevations?
Because gravity gives objects at high elevations the potential to fall much further.
The Force of attraction the exists between two objects?
kenetic
How does increasing the height of a ramp effect a rolling objects speed?
Because then more kenetic energy is transfered
What is an objects total and potential energy?
An objects total kinetic and potential energy is when both things are moving (kinetic) and the energy is stored in the object (potential)
Why do objects at high elevation have more potential energy than objects at low elevations?
Because gravity gives objects at high elevations the potential to fall much further.
What is the force that prevents different objects from falling at the same rate?
acceleration
What energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy in a system of objects?
The sum of the potential and kinetic energy of large-scale objects in a system is the Hamiltonian.
An example of kenetic fritcion?
Kinetic friction is when two objects are rubbing against each other. Putting a book flat on a desk and moving it around is an example of kinetic friction.
What friction opposes the motion of sliding objects?
The force that opposes objects already in motion is Kinetic Friction.Static Friction prevents objects from starting to move when originally at rest.
What is related to an objects height?
Gravitational potential energy
Do moving objects have energy?
Yes they can have potential energy.
Which mass has more potential energy?
A more massive objects have a greater gravitational potential energy.
An object that has potential energy may have this energy because of its?
An objects Potential Energy is because of its position.
