You have converted potential energy to kinetic and then back to potential. If the marble came back exactly to its starting point you would have invented perpetual motion, but in fact it will lose a little energy in friction against the tube so it will gradually lose energy and eventually just stop at the lowest point of the tube.

When potential energy changes to kinetic energy, it is called energy transformation.


What is the combined energy called of kinetic and potential?

The combined energy of kinetic and potential energy is called mechanical energy. This is the total energy of an object due to both its motion (kinetic energy) and its position (potential energy).

When potential energy change to kinetic energy this is called?

When potential energy changes to kinetic energy, it is called "energy transformation" or "energy conversion."


Energy due to position is called?

potential energy. It is the energy that an object possesses due to its position or configuration, such as gravitational potential energy or elastic potential energy. It can be stored and later converted into kinetic energy.


Can potential energy be described as energy of motion?

What is the potential and kinetic energy of a system with moving parts called?

The potential and kinetic energy of a system with moving parts is called mechanical energy. Potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or state, while kinetic energy is the energy possessed by an object in motion. The sum of an object's potential and kinetic energy is its mechanical energy.


Is the energy stored in a compressed spring called kinetic energy?

No, the energy stored in a compressed spring is called potential energy, specifically elastic potential energy. When the spring is released, this potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the spring moves and accelerates.


What is it called when potential energy becomes kinetic energy?

It is called the transformation of energy.


What can be rolled down a surface?

potential energy- stored energy kinetic energy- moving energy if a person slides down a slide is called potenial energy to kinetic energy if someone goes up an escalator is called kinetic energy to potential energy potential energy in other words is called the reaching a higher point kinetic energy in other words is called the reaching a lower point


Is potential energy different than kinetic energy?

The energy stored in a body due to its motion is called kinetic energy. The energy stored in a body due to its position (height) or shape is called potential energy. So a body at rest may have potential energy but it has no kinetic energy.


What kind of energy does a rolling toy have (rolling toy)?

It has kinetic energy.
