What type of energy is kinetic and potential?
Kinetic and potential energy are types of mechanical energy.
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.
Execute a swan dive would be kinetic energy or potential energy?
Potential energy
What type of energy is stored in thermal energy-kinetic or potential energy?
It consist both, the kinetic as well as potential energy. Justification: As per potential energy formula mgh m-mass in kg g- Acceleration due to gravity h - Height if any of the above parameters does not have zero value then their should be a potential energy. Kinetic energy does exist.
Is rolling down a hill potential or kinetic energy?
Yes, because potential energy is energy stored but kinetic is energy in motion.
How you differentiate potential energy from kinetic energy?
Sean Ling.
What are the two types of mechanical energy?
Potential energy and kinetic energy. mechanical energy is the energy of motion(kinetic energy)or the potential of motion(potential energy) so i would say-kinetic and potential energy
What are the two main forms of energy?
The two main forms of energy are Kinetic energy and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is motion energy. Potential energy is energy stored in matter.
An avalanche demonstrates what kind of energy conversion?
Gravitational potential energy to kinetic energy
What is the total kinetic energy and potential energy?
It is the sum of potential and kinetic energy.
What are the two basic types of energy?
There are two main types of energy which is kinetic and potential energy.. Kinetic energy is an energy associated with motion.. while the potential energy is an energy stored with the position of an object, or its chemical composition.
If an object's mechanical energy is equal to its potential energy how much kinetic energy does it have?
Mechanical Energy= Potential energy+ Kinetic energy, so for the mechanical energy to be equal to be potential energy, the kinetic energy must be 0.
How potential energy is changed to kinetic energy?
potential energy is changed to kinetic energy when you push.
Potential energy is frequently converted to kinetic energy. Kinetic energy?
can be converted to potential energy.
How is potential energy change to kinetic energy?
potential energy is changed to kinetic energy when you push.
What type of energy is kinetic and potential?
Kinetic and potential energy are types of mechanical energy.
Is energy at rest potential or kinetic energy?
a energy at rest is potential energy. because kinetic energy is a energy in motion.
