We know that energy is defined as the ability to do work.So an object has one joule of potential energy means that the body has capability to do a work of one joule.
We may say that the object with 1 joule of potential energy is the force field and our work is stored in displacing the object against the field
What else can I help you with?
Is running an kinetic or potential energy?
The potential energy of the mass of the sky diver is transformed into kinetic energy during the free fall. The kinetic energy of the free fall is transformed into kinetic energy and heat of the air when the parachute is deployed.
Why does kinetic energy depend on mass and speed?
Since kintetic energy is the energy of motion it depends on the two. mass affects inertia and inertia applies to kinetic energy. and speed is applied because the faster it going the more kinetic energy the object has.
What is cell potential in an electrochemical cell?
A galvanic cell is set up by generating a redox reaction, whose current is used to do work and the chemical energy is changed to electrical energy. Remember that a full oxidation-reduction reaction can be broken down to two half-reactions, one oxidation (loss of electrons) and one reduction (gain of electrons). There is a transfer of electrons from the anode (oxidation) to the cathode (reduction). There is a driving force that pulls the electrons from the anode to the cathode. This force is the cell potential of the electrochemical cell. It is measured in volts, which is 1 joule of work per Coulomb of charge transferred. Cell potential can be measured through a voltmeter. A voltmeter draws current through a known resistance. Notice, that a voltmeter is not precise because frictional heating occurs in the wire and uses some of the energy of the cell, so the number we get is actually less than the actual cell potential. It would be ideal to find the cell potential under zero current using a potentiometer. In these conditions, the cell potential has the same magnitude but opposite sign to the voltage of the potentiometer.
How many joules does one ATP molecule yield?
Energy released = 29kJ/mole ATP.1 mole ATP = 6.022 x 1023 moleculesConvert moles to molecules.29kJ/mol x 1mol/6.022 x 1023 molecule = 4.8 x 10-23kJ/moleculeConvert kJ to Joule4.8 x 10-23kJ/molecule x 1000Joules/kJ = 4.8 x 10-20 Joule/molecule
Explain what happens to the mass that is lost when a nucleus forms?
When a nucleus forms, the mass that is lost is converted into energy according to Einstein's equation E=mc^2. This energy is released in the form of radiation or kinetic energy of the particles involved in the nuclear reaction, such as alpha particles or beta particles.
What are the metric units for potential energy?
The metric unit for potential energy is the joule (J). It is the amount of energy an object has due to its position or state.
What does the joule explain about energy?
The joule doesn't "explain" anything; it is simply a unit used to measure energy.
What is the unit for potential and kenetic energy?
The international unit for any type of energy is the joule.
What is the SI unit for potential energy?
It is a Joule.
What is the unit of potential energy in SI system?
the unit is the same for all kinds of energy : Joule ( which is equivalent to N.m )
What is the SI unit for Gravatational Potential Energy?
Joule
What is the metric unit of potential energy?
The metric unit of potential energy is the joule (J).
What SI unit is used to express gravitational potential energy?
The same as for any other type of energy - the joule.
What is the SI unit of energy please explain?
The SI unit of energy is the joule (J). One joule is equal to the work done by a force of one newton acting over a distance of one meter. Energy can be converted between different forms such as kinetic, potential, and thermal energy.
What is an example of a joule?
A joule is simply a unit to measure energy. Examples of energy include gravitational potential energy, kinetic energy, sound energy, light energy, elastic energy, nuclear energy.
What is the s1 unit for potencial energy?
The SI unit for potential energy is the joule (J).
If you were a joule how would you explain the temperature rise in the water?
As a joule, I would explain that when energy is transferred to water, its molecules gain kinetic energy, causing them to move faster and increasing the temperature. This is because the energy input raises the average kinetic energy of the water molecules, leading to a temperature rise.
