When a puck falls it potential energy increase or decrease?

Kinetic energy


What happens to the potential energy as the kinetic of an object increase?

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.


When a ball is falling what is the energy change?

As a ball fall downwards, it's velocity continuously increases, therefore the kinetic energy increases. As the height from the ground level decreases, the potential energy decreases. Further, the total mechanical energy remains constant throughout the motion.


How does the sum of Kinetic and gravitational Potential energy change?

The answer depends on the situation. For example, the sum of the kinetic and gravitational potential energy of an aircraft which is taking off will increase.


How is potential energy tansformed into kenetic energy?

For example, when an object falls, its potential energy decreases, but its kinetic energy increases, i.e., it falls faster and faster.


What is the relationship between a kinetic an potential energy?

When potiental increases, kinetic decreases and vice versa.


As an orange falls from it greatest height what kind of energy increase an what kind of energy decrease?

Kinetic energy increases and gravitational potential energy decreases.


What is an example when potiential energy turns into kinetic energy?

Potential energy is mgh Kinetic energy is .5mv^2 1 ex is a huge rock The rock has potential energy but when it falls the PE turns to Kinetic energy As one decreases the other increases


How does increasing speed affect potential energy?

Increasing the speed will increase the KINETIC energy, not the potential energy. Of course, the potential energy may eventually be converted into kinetic energy, for example if the object moves upwards.


What happens to an object's potential energy as it gains kinetic energy?

It's potential energy decreases.


When negative work is done on a moving object it's kenetic energy?

When negative work is done on the object, the object's energy decreases. This MAY be kinetic energy, but some other form of energy may increase instead, for example, potential energy or heat energy.


Does kinetic energy decreases as a box accelerates down an inclined plane?

Kinetic energy increases; potential energy decreases, because the object is now in motion
