On a molecular level heat is what kind of energy of the following Kinetic energy or potential energy or mass energy or momentum?
In physics, energy (from the Greek ἐνέργεια - energeia, "activity, operation", from ἐνεργός - energos, "active, working"[1]) is a scalar physical quantity that describes the amount of work that can be performed by a force, an attribute of objects and systems that is subject to a conservation law. Different forms of energy include kinetic, potential, thermal, gravitational, sound, light, elastic, and electromagnetic energy. The forms of energy are often named after a related force.
What else can I help you with?
An object that has linear momentum must also have?
Momentum. The formula for kinetic energy is: KE = .5 * m *v^2 The formula for momentum is: p = m * v If an object has kinetic energy, then both mass and velocity are non-zero, which implies that the momentum is also non-zero.
How is energy transferred from potential to kinetic on a roller coaster?
Energy is transferred from potential to kinetic on a roller coaster as the coaster descends from a higher elevation to a lower elevation. As the coaster moves downwards, gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. This energy transfer allows the coaster to gain speed and momentum.
Before you drop something what kind of energy does it have?
An object held at a certain height has potential energy due to its position in the gravitational field. This potential energy transforms into kinetic energy as the object falls, increasing its speed and momentum.
Can any object have mechanical energy even if its momentum is zero. Explain?
Yes - mechanical energy includes both gravitational potential energy, and kinetic energy. If an object's momentum is zero, then its kinetic energy will also be zero, but its potential energy can be positive or negative, depending on whether the object is above or below the chosen reference level.
What happens to the potential energy of water as gravity pulls the water downhill?
As water is pulled downhill by gravity, its potential energy decreases and kinetic energy increases. The potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as the water gains speed and momentum while flowing downhill.
How are momentum and energy different from each other?
Momentum (P) is an object's mass times velocity. There are various forms of energy, such as kinetic (KE) and potential for example. In the case of kinetic energy it is related to momentum in the following formula: KE = (P^2)/2m.
What does not have the same units as the others Kinetic Energy Momentum Potential Energy or Work?
Momentum does not have the same units as the others. Kinetic energy is measured in joules, potential energy in joules, work in joules, but momentum is measured in kilogram meters per second (kg m/s).
When kinetic energy doubled what happens to momentum?
If kinetic energy is doubled, the momentum will remain the same. Kinetic energy and momentum are related, but momentum depends on mass and velocity while kinetic energy depends on mass and velocity squared. Therefore, doubling kinetic energy will not affect momentum.
An object that has linear momentum must also have?
Momentum. The formula for kinetic energy is: KE = .5 * m *v^2 The formula for momentum is: p = m * v If an object has kinetic energy, then both mass and velocity are non-zero, which implies that the momentum is also non-zero.
What is the abbreviation for kinetic molecular theory?
Kinetic Molecular Theory's abbreviation is KMT or sometimes KMTG when it is the abbreviation for Kinetic Molecular Theory of Gas
Does an object with momentum always have energy?
Not if it's potential energy. Only objects with kinetic energy have momentum.
How is energy transferred from potential to kinetic on a roller coaster?
Energy is transferred from potential to kinetic on a roller coaster as the coaster descends from a higher elevation to a lower elevation. As the coaster moves downwards, gravitational potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. This energy transfer allows the coaster to gain speed and momentum.
How does kinetic energy change when the momentum is doubled?
Kinetic energy is directly proportional to the square of the momentum. Therefore, if the momentum is doubled, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four.
Before you drop something what kind of energy does it have?
An object held at a certain height has potential energy due to its position in the gravitational field. This potential energy transforms into kinetic energy as the object falls, increasing its speed and momentum.
Can any object have mechanical energy even if its momentum is zero. Explain?
Yes - mechanical energy includes both gravitational potential energy, and kinetic energy. If an object's momentum is zero, then its kinetic energy will also be zero, but its potential energy can be positive or negative, depending on whether the object is above or below the chosen reference level.
What happens to the gravitational potential energy as the pendulum starts back up towards its highest point?
The pendulum's momentum or kinetic energy is converted to gravitational potential energy until all of the kinetic energy is converted. The pendulum stops.
Can somthing have momentum without having energy?
momentum = mass * velocity kinetic energy = 1/2 mass * velocity^2 If an object has non-zero momentum, it has non-zero velocity. It thus has kinetic energy, at least. It most likely has other forms of energy as well (potential, thermal, etc.)
