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.
What is the connection between kinetic energy and potential energy?
When potential energy and kinetic energy are combined it is called mechanical energy. Mechanical energy is the energy that is possessed by an object due to its motion or due to its position. Mechanical energy can be either kinetic energy (energy of motion) or potential energy (stored energy of position).
What do you know about interconversion of energy of kinetic energy and potential energy of free falling bodies?
The potential energy decreases as the body falls while the kinetic energy increases. P.E.=mass x gravity x height The shorter the height the less potential energy there is K.E.= 1/2 x mass x velocity^2 The velocity increases as the body falls and the bigger the velocity the more Kinetic Energy produced
What kind of energy is stored energy?
This is called potential energy, because it is available when required
A object has one joule of potential energy explain what does it means?
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
Is it true lowering an object decreases its potential energy?
yes it is true
What happens to an object's potential energy as it gains kinetic energy?
It's potential energy decreases.
Work done in lifting and lowering an object?
potential energy
Does potential energy decreases as an object falls to earth?
Yes.
If an object that moves faster does it have greater potential energy?
no. if an object moves faster its kinetic energy increases but at the same time its potential energy decreases.
Does lowering an object decrease its potential energy?
Yes. One type of potential energy is gravitational potential energy, or how much energy an object has based on how far it can fall. If you lower an object, it loses gravitational potential energy because it can't fall as far. Likewise, if you raise an object, it gains G.P.E.
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.
What happens to potential energy of an object as it falls?
It is tranferred/converted into kinetic energy (DECREASES)
What is the final velocity of an object that decreases in kinetic energy and increases in potential energy?
Its final velocity will be zero when it reaches maximum potential energy.
When the negatively charged object moves in the opposite direction of an electric field the potential energy of the object?
decreases
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.
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
