What is a second factor that affects gravitional potential energy?
Another factor that affects gravitational potential energy is the height or distance the object is from the reference point. The higher an object is placed, the greater its gravitational potential energy will be.
How does something gain gravitational potential?
An object gains gravitational potential energy when it is raised above the Earth's surface. The increase in distance from the center of the Earth leads to an increase in potential energy due to the gravitational force between the object and the Earth.
How does chemical energy relate to potential and kinetic energy?
Potential energy is when the body is in a particular position.The position of a object changes rapidly due to gravitional force of the earth.Kinetic energy is the energy when the object is in motion.there is no chemical energy relating with these energies.
What form of energy is associated with the position of an object in Earth's gravitional field?
Potential energy
Describe three situations in which the gravitional potential energyof an object changes?
When an object is lifted to a higher position above the ground, its gravitational potential energy increases. When an object falls from a higher position to a lower position, its gravitational potential energy decreases due to the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy. When two objects move closer together due to gravitational attraction, their gravitational potential energy decreases as they come to a shorter separation distance.
What is a second factor that affects gravitional potential energy?
Another factor that affects gravitational potential energy is the height or distance the object is from the reference point. The higher an object is placed, the greater its gravitational potential energy will be.
Define elastic potential energy and gravitional potential energy?
Gravitational potential energy, is the energy an object possesses by reason of its position in a gravitational field. While elastic potential energy, is the energy stored by a material or object as a result of deformation e.g. the energy stored in a bow when it is stretched.
What does gravitional energy mean?
It refers to potential energy (energy of position), related to the force of gravity. Basically, at a higher position, an object has more energy than at a lower position.
What is the definition of'' potential energy''?
Potential energy refers to the energy possessed by a given object relative to its position.
How does something gain gravitational potential?
An object gains gravitational potential energy when it is raised above the Earth's surface. The increase in distance from the center of the Earth leads to an increase in potential energy due to the gravitational force between the object and the Earth.
What other energy is common to elastic and gravitional energy?
co2
How would you explain the difference between potential and kinetic energy?
Kinetic energy is energy related to movement. The formula is (1/2) mass times velocity squared. Potential energy is energy of position. The formula for gravitional potential energy is mgh (mass times gravitation times height).
What is the definition of mechanical energuy?
The sum of potential energy + kinetic energy.
What is the definition of Gravitaitional Potential Energy?
The energy stored in a raised object.
Definition of Chemical potential energy?
Energy stored in chemical bonds
