What happends to potential energy as a squashed ball regains its shape?
As the ball returns to its original shape, kinetic energy decreases and potential energy increases.
What potential energy does a squashed ball have?
When a ball is squashed, it gains potential energy due to the compression of its material. This potential energy is stored in the form of elastic potential energy, as the ball has the potential to return to its original shape when released.
What type of potential energy does a squashed ball have?
This is what im trying to find out :/
As speed increases what happens to potential energy?
Potential energy is unrelated to speed.
What causes elastic potential energy?
shape or configuration of objects causes elastic potential energy as this is the energy stored in the object which allows it to deform itself.The spring regains its shape due to restoring force which is always opposite to the force applied
When in a roller coaster ride does potential energy become kenetic energy?
Potential energy becomes kinetic energy when the car begins its downward descent from the top of one of the rollercoaster's peaks. It accumlates potential energy as it is lifted to the first and highest peak. It regains some of its lost potential energy each time it re-ascends one of the lower peaks, then loses potential and gains kinetic energy as it drops again.
When attractive force increases what happens to potential energy?
Potential energy will decrease.
What happens to potential energy when the speed is increased?
Potential energy is not affected by speed.
What happens to potential energy that is not converted to kinetic energy?
If potential energy is not converted into kinetic energy (or into any other type of energy) then it remains potential. Potential energy does not expire.
What happens to its potential energy as it passes to the lowest point?
potential energy changes to kinetic energy
What happens to an object's potential energy as it gains kinetic energy?
It's potential energy decreases.
What are the 10 forms of energy?
They are; Kinetic Energy (from moving objects), Gravitational Potential Energy (possessed by anything on a height), Elastic Potential Energy (possessed by squashed or stretched objects), Electrical, Magnetic, Mechanical, Heat/Thermal, Nuclear, Chemical, and Light.
