When a moving object comes to a halt, it simply means that the energy that set it moving in the first place has run out. In other words there is no more kinetic energy available to cause the object to move.

Remember that for every action there is an opposite but equal reaction.

If you push a cart forward, you are applying a measurable force that moves the object, but as soon as you stop pushing the cart, then gravity, air resistance etc will counteract the momentum and eventually the cart, if on a level surface, will stop

When are an objects potential energy and kinetic energy equal?

When an object is stationary in a plane, (no hill or slope) then potential energy and kinetic energy are equal. Following the case, if an object is stationary at the top of a hill, it has stored energy (potential energy) due to gravitational attraction, as the force of gravity attracts the object towards the ground and once the object gets some kind of motion, all those potential energy will change to kinetic energy. **************************** Actually, the Object CAN be moving, but it is moving Parallel to its Reference Frame, and at a Constant Velocity.

What is speed of a stationary object?

In the frame of reference in which the object is stationary, its speed is zero. (Actually, that's kind of a definition of "stationary".)

It can be.


Does the speed of an object affect the way it sinks on cornstarch?

A stationary object will sink in cornstarch. If an object has kinetic energy (is moving) it will transfer its energy to the cornstarch when it stikes it. This kinetic energy causes the cornstarch to solidify temporarily, once this energy dissipates into the material around where the object struck, the cornstarch becomes liquid again.


When an object is seen moving in relation to a stationary object the stationary object is called the?

A stationary object used to gauge the movement of another object might be called the reference. This could also be termed as the point of reference.
