What else can I help you with?
Energy which is a result of an object's height above the earth is?
Energy which is a result of an object's height above the earth is potential energy.
What is accomplished when an object is moved by a force?
When an object is moved by a force, work is done, increasing or decreasing its kinetic energy, often but not always decreasing or increasing its potential energy.
The potential energy of an object depends on its?
... the masses of the bodies involved and the distance between them.
Is we are prepared for whatever may happen a direct object?
We are prepared for whatever may happen. Direct object: whatever
What are some examples of energy transfer?
The exact details vary, depending on the types of energy involved. You may want to ask specific questions about specific types of energy transfer. I will give a few examples: An object falling down. While the potential energy (related to height) decreases, the kinetic energy (related to speed) increases. The same object touches the ground. Most of the movement energy is converted to random molecular movement, i.e., to heat. The Sun radiates energy: Heat (thermal energy) is converted into light and other electromagnetic waves (radiation energy). An object hits another object; part of the energy is converted to sound energy: Quite simply, the collision makes the objects vibrate; these collisions are transmitted through the air (for example), as sound waves.
Can potential energy increase with speed?
No, potential energy does not increase with speed. Potential energy is determined by an object's position or state, while speed is a measure of the object's motion. The kinetic energy of an object increases as its speed increases, not its potential energy.
What are 2 ways to increase potential energy?
Increase the height of an object above the ground, as potential energy is directly proportional to height. Increase the mass of an object, as potential energy is also directly proportional to mass.
What actions will increase the gravitational potential energy of an object?
Raising the object to a higher position will increase its gravitational potential energy. The gravitational potential energy of an object depends on its mass, the acceleration due to gravity, and the height from a reference point.
When you work on an object you increase the what of the object?
When you work on an object, you increase the energy of the object. This can be in the form of kinetic energy (if the object is in motion) or potential energy (if the object is at rest but has the potential to do work).
How could you increase the energy of an object resting on a desk?
You could increase the energy of the object by applying a force to it in the direction of its movement or by raising it to a higher position above the desk. Both of these actions would increase the object's potential energy, which can be converted to kinetic energy when the object is released.
In raising an object, must there be an increase in which type of energy that the object possesses?
Yes, in raising an object, there must be an increase in potential energy that the object possesses.
How and can you increase the potential energy an object has?
You can increase an object's potential energy by either increasing its height or applying a force in the direction opposite to the field it is in. This applies to gravitational potential energy (increasing height) and elastic potential energy (stretching a spring).
What causes the increase in potential energy?
The increase in potential energy is caused by the elevation or height of an object. As an object is raised higher above the ground, its potential energy increases due to the gravitational force acting on it.
How can doing work on a object increase its potential energy?
When work is done on an object by applying a force over a distance, the object gains potential energy. For example, lifting an object against gravity increases its height and potential energy due to the work done in lifting it. This increase in potential energy is a result of the energy transferred to the object from the external force applied to it.
How can you increase an object's gravitational potential energy?
By raising the object to a higher position. The potential energy also depends on the force of gravity, and on the object's mass, but for a given object (and for a given planet!), you have no control over these.
What happen to the potential energy if its height increases?
If the height of an object increases, its potential energy also increases. This is because potential energy is directly proportional to the height of the object above a reference point, such as the ground. As the object is raised to a higher position, it gains more potential energy due to the increased distance it can potentially fall from.
What are two ways to give an object potential energy?
One can move the object in the negative direction of a gravitational force to increase its gravitational potential energy.If the object is elastic, you can deform the object under tension or compression (stress) to increase its elastic potential energy.If the object holds a magnetic charge you can increase its electrodynamic potential energy by subjecting it to a stronger magnetic field.If the object holds a static charge, one can increase the amount of charged electric particles (static) to increase electrostatic potential energy, also known as electric potential.One can heat an object to increase its thermal potential energy.One can slow an object down to increase it's rest mass energy (also potential)One can introduce charged leptons or down-type quarks into an atom, which by emitting W and Z bosons can increase the weak forces, which will increase nuclear potential forces of an atom (bit of a stretch)
