What else can I help you with?
Can potential energy only be converted to kinetic energy?
by force
If gravity is the only force present what is the total mechanical energy of a book falling off a shelf at a time when its potential energy is 50 J and its kinetic energy is 60 J?
The total mechanical energy of the book falling off the shelf is the sum of its potential energy and kinetic energy. Therefore, the total mechanical energy is 110 J (50 J potential energy + 60 J kinetic energy).
Is chemical energy kinetic energy or potential energy?
Chemical energy is a form of potential energy stored in the bonds of chemicals. When these bonds are broken, the potential energy is converted into other forms of energy, such as kinetic energy.
What point on the halfpipe does the skateboarder possess only kinetic energy and no potential energy?
At the bottom , where all potential energy has been converted to kinetic
Is energy stored in an object due to its position called kinetic energy?
No, that is potential energy. Kinetic is only possessed by moving objects
Can objects mechanical energy be equal to its gravitational potential energy?
Yes. Mechanical energy is the sum of potential energy and kinetic energy; this includes gravitational potential energy.
If you Add up the total kinetic energy and potential energy what does that give you?
The sum of potential and kinetic energy gives you the Mechanical Energy of the system
Is it possible to have kinetic and potential energy at the same time?
yes it is, but you can only have kinetic energy of the object is in motion and potential energy if the object is any height above zero
The sum of the kinetic and potential energy of all the particles in an object?
The total mechanical energy of an object is the sum of its kinetic energy (energy of motion) and potential energy (energy of position). It represents the total amount of energy present in the system. This concept is derived from the law of conservation of energy, which states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, only transferred or transformed.
Can objects have potential and kinetic energy at the same time?
a body cannot have both kinetic and potential energy at the same time because, a moving body can only possess kinetic energy at a time, but potential energy is one possessed by a body with respect to its possition.
Definition objects at rest?
An object that has no kinetic energy, only potential energy.
What are three types of mechanical energy?
Only two types: potential energy and kinetic energy.
