The energy change that takes place as a cup falls off a table is the cup's potential energy decreases while the cup's kinetic energy increases.

∙ 9y agoWhen a cup is placed on a table, it exerts some weight on the table. The table will in turn exert an equal reaction force (equal to the weight of the cup) against the cup.

∙ 9y agoIt has potential energy which would be converted to kinetic energy if the cup falls off the table.
Wiki User

What type of energy does a cup have sitting on a table have?
none what energy does a cup have at all. you just don't see a cup flying around do you?
What energy change take place as a cup falls off a table?
The energy change that takes place as a cup falls off a table is the cup's potential energy decreases while the cup's kinetic energy increases.
Will water heat more in a black cup or a white cup when sitting in the sun?
Dark objects will absorb more sunlight, converting it into heat energy, which is then passed on to the water - thus making it heat faster.
What is an equal and opposite force that does not produce an acceleration?
I think you are talking about reaction force. An example is an object, say a cup, on a table. The cup is attracted to the centre of the earth by gravity and would accelerate if the table was not there. The table is in the way and produces a force in reaction to the cup pressing down on it.
Does a cup have potential energy?
yes it does have potential energy if it falls or spill

Where does the heat go from a cup of hot cocoa sitting on the table?
Hot air rises.

What type of energy is a hot cup of tea?
The heat is thermal energy, but it also has several other forms of energy (including mass energy, potential energy, chemical energy, etc.)
How many tables spoon are in a cup?
A table spoon is smaller than a cup, therefore; it's not possible to fit a cup into a table spoon, but there are 16 table spoons in a cup. 1/16 cup
How many tablespoons of table salt are in 1 cup of table salt?
1 cup = 16 tablespoons
What happens to a cup of hot chocolate as it sits on a table?
it cools off and grows bacteria. AND IT HEATS UP THE ROOM BECAUSE OF THERMAL ENERGY

If you have a quarter on a table with a cup over it how do you get the quarter without touching the cup?
Remove the table and pick up the quarter from the floor (being careful not to cut yourself on the broken cup)
What type of energy does a battery hamburger book on a shelf a green plant a beam of sunlight a piece of radioactive metal a cup of hot cocoa have?
The answer is ((The Nature of Energy))
What is the use of cup and saucer?
when you put tea in the cup, you then put the cup on the saucer to prevent tea from spilling onto the table or to protect the table from the cup. And it makes carrying the cup a lot easier. try tea with biscuits for an english touch :)
