What is the similarities between kinetic energy and potential energy?
kinetic energy depends on speed an potential energy depends on height and mass
Similarities between Kinetic energy potential energy electric energy and gravitational energy?
they are both measured in joules
A person jumping off niagara falls energy turns into what?
Potential energy turns into kinetic energy.
The potential energy of a satellite in an elliptical orbit is?
The total energy of a satellite doesn't change. At its closest approach to the planet, it has the most kinetic energy and the least potential, whereas at its furthest retreat from the planet, it has the least kinetic energy and the most potential. But their sum ... the satellite's total mechanical energy ... is always the same. (It may gain heat energy when the sun is shining directly on it, and lose it when it's in the planet's cold shadow, but neither of those changes affects its orbit.)
What are the similarities between kinetic energy and potential energy?
They are both measured in joules, and they're both types of energy.
Is gravity kinetic energy?
There is no "gravity kinetic energy". There is gravitational energy (a type of potential energy), and - separately - there is kinetic energy (the energy of movement).
What is works against gravity a potential or kinetic?
Potential energy.
Is gravity energy?
No. Gravity is a force. Potential energy turns into kinetic (moving) energy when you fall due to gravity.
Is gravitational energy kinetic?
Gravitational energy is the potential energyassociated with the gravitational field.
Gravity your kinetic energy when you are driving uphill and it when you are driving downhill?
it is both kinetic and potential energy
How is a river potential energy changed into kinetic energy?
As gravity pulls water down a slope, the water's potential energy changes to kinetic energy that can do work.
Is gravity potential or kinetic?
Gravity is a force more so than an energy
What are scientific principles for catapults?
a couple of them are kinetic & potential energy and gravity!
How can kinetic energy convert to potential energy?
By raising objects against gravity (upward)
What are possible reasons for any difference between the work done and kinetic energy?
kinetic is not a potential energy because kinetic energy is made of movement but potential energies are stored but can be used
The potential energy of a freely falling body decreases continuouslyWhat happens to the loss of potential energy?
It becomes kinetic energy. And as an object goes up against gravity, it gains potential energy and loses kinetic energy.
When a ball rolls down a hill what energy conversation occurs?
gravity
