Want this question answered?
The total kinetic and potential energy of the molecules of an object is thermal energy.
Some of its potential energy changes to kinetic energy.
It is internal energy that drives atoms or molecules in a random manner
Kinetic energy is the energy that an object has because of its motion. The energy depends on the speed and mass of the object.
the energy in an object about to fall is potential energy then kinetic energy because when the object is not falling, it has potential energy but when it's actually falling, it has kinetic energy.
The total kinetic and potential energy of the molecules of an object is thermal energy.
Potential energy is the energy contained in the position of an object, so object hanging on a tree would be potential energy.
The sum of the kinetic and potential energy of all the molecules in an object is the thermal energy
The sum of the kinetic and potential energy of all the molecules in an object is the thermal energy
Some of its potential energy changes to kinetic energy.
It is internal energy that drives atoms or molecules in a random manner
The average kinetic energy of all the molecules in an object is the temperature.
The name for the combination of the kinetic and potential energy of an object is heat.
potential energy is the energy that an object has stored up. kinetic energy is an object in motion. :) hi ppl :)))))))
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.
The difference between potential and kinetic energy all comes down to a very simple property of the object. If an object is moving, then it has kinetic energy, or kinetic energy is the energy of movement. Potential energy is energy that is stored in an object and can be released under the right conditions.
Mechanical energy is defined as the SUM of potential energy plus kinetic energy. If all of its mechanical energy is potential energy, it follows that it has no kinetic energy.
