What else can I help you with?
Are there examples of potential energy?
Gravitational Potential Energy, Elastic Potential Energy, Chemical Potential Energy, Electrical Potential Energy, Nuclear Potential Energy. If you want more info, check out this wikipedia page that I linked.
What gives something potintial energy?
Potential energy is the theory that an object has energy that can be released. Gravitational Potential Energy is an example of this. GPE is obtained as you gain height, the more height, the more GPE.
Is thermal energy kinetic or potential?
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, KE=mv2/2.Thermal energy is different from kinetic energy.Thermal energy is associated with the temperature of a body, the heat gained by increasing the temperature. That heat gives molecules more kinetic energy and more potential energy and may also give molecules more more electronic energy.
Stored energy is known as?
I don't believe there is a special word for stored energy, I would just call it that, "stored energy". Energy of position is called potential energy. For example, if you lift a weight against the force of gravitation, the energy you transfer to the object is stored as gravitational potential energy. At a higher position, it has more of this energy than when it is at a low position.
What is stored enegry?
Potential energy is stored energy, which results from position or configuration. Refer to the related link below for more information.
If to vases are side-by-side on a shelf how could one have more potential energy?
IF the shelf is horizontal and both vases are absolutely identical, they will both have the same potential energy. However if they are different, then the vase that has the most mass will have more potential energy.
How if two vases are side by on a shelf one could have more potential energy?
If one vase is placed higher on the shelf than the other, it will have more potential energy due to its higher position above the ground. Potential energy is directly proportional to an object's distance from the reference point, which in this case is the ground.
Explain how, if two vases are side by side on a shelf, one could have more potential energy?
If two vases are side by side on a shelf, one vase could have more potential energy if it is positioned higher than the other vase relative to the ground. This difference in potential energy arises from the gravitational potential energy of each vase. Gravitational potential energy depends on an object's weight (mass) and its height above the ground. So, if one vase is placed higher on the shelf, it will have more gravitational potential energy because it has a greater height above the ground compared to the other vase. This means that if the higher vase were to fall, it would travel a greater distance due to its higher starting point, and gravity would do more work on it during the fall, resulting in more potential energy stored in the higher vase.
If two vases are side by side could one have more protential energy than the other?
if two vases are side by side one could have more potential energy because the one that has more mass has more potential energy.
How if two vases are side by side on a shelf one could have more potiential energy?
Pressumably you are talking about gravitational potential energy. Look at the formula for gravitational potential energy: GPE = mgh Gravity will be the same for both. The mass, and the height, may be different. The vases may have different masses, and as for the height, the vases may be of a different shape, so that the center of mass of one is higher than that of the other one.
Which has more kinetic energy a book on top shelf or book on bottom shelf?
A book on the bottom shelf usually has more kinetic energy because it has the potential to fall from a greater height than a book on the top shelf. As an object falls, its potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.
Why does a book on a high shelf have more potential energy than on a low shelf?
Well, honey, that book on the high shelf has more potential energy because it's got farther to fall. Gravity's just itching for the chance to show off its power and send that book plummeting down to the ground. So, the higher the book, the more potential energy it's got stored up just waiting to be unleashed.
Do a stretched spring and a box on a high shelf both have potential energy why or why not explain you answer?
Yes, both the stretched spring and the box on a high shelf have potential energy. The stretched spring has elastic potential energy due to its deformation, while the box on the high shelf has gravitational potential energy due to its height above the ground. Both forms of potential energy represent stored energy that can be released and converted into other forms of energy.
What form of stored energy does a book have while it is still on a high shelf?
How does a book on a higher shelf have more potential energy than a book on the lower shelf
Why does a ball sitting on a shelf have gravitational potential energy?
Because potential energy is directly proportional to all the factors that yield it's value. Potential Energy = mass * gravitational acceleration * height So, with everything else being constant increasing the height will increase the potential energy.
Book on a shelf potential or kinetic energy?
Carry it up a cliff. ************************** Increase the height of the object or increase the mass.
What is an example of an object that has potential energy?
Water in a hydroelectric dam has potential energy that came from the Sun's energy evaporating it and raising it up from the oceans. The energy is released by running the water down a chute so that it gains kinetic energy which drives a water turbine and that drives an electric generator.
