What else can I help you with?
What form of stored energy does a book have while it is still on the the high shelf?
Potential energy, specifically gravitational potential energy, since the book has the potential to fall due to gravity when it is on the high shelf.
What form of energy does a book have once it reaches the floor from falling off a high shelf?
The book has kinetic energy as it falls towards the floor. When it hits the floor, some of this kinetic energy will be converted into sound energy and some into thermal energy due to the impact.
What are Examples of storing gravitational potential energy?
Examples of storing gravitational potential energy include: Water in a raised dam A boulder at the top of a cliff A book on a high shelf A person at the top of a staircase.
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.
Does a book sitting on a self have potential energy?
its physics term for the fact that it is not in motion (kinetic energy) but it is above the ground, so at any moment it could "potentially" have kinetic energy by falling to the floor.
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
Is Book on a high shelf chemical or potential energy?
Potential energy.
What form of stored energy does a book have while it is still on the the high shelf?
Potential energy, specifically gravitational potential energy, since the book has the potential to fall due to gravity when it is on the high shelf.
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.
What form of energy does a book have once it reaches the floor from falling off a high shelf?
The book has kinetic energy as it falls towards the floor. When it hits the floor, some of this kinetic energy will be converted into sound energy and some into thermal energy due to the impact.
What is the mass of a book on a 2 meter high shelf with 20 joules of potential energy?

Is a book falling down from a high shelf kinetic or potential energy?
It's neither. It's just a piece of fruit. While it's hanging and not moving, it has gravitational potential energy because of its position, and food potential energy because of its chemical composition. When it separates from the tree and moves to a different location, such as the ground or a processing plant, it has kinetic energy because of its motion. Its chemical potential energy doesn't change until it's processed, consumed, or rotted.

How much kinetic energy does a book have just it hits the floor?
Just about as much as it had potential energy before it started falling - since most of the potential energy will be converted into kinetic energy. The exact amount depends from how high it falls.
What things use gravitational potential energy?
The medieval war machine the trebuchet uses gravitational potential energy to hurl rocks. Hydroelectric dams use the gravitational potential of water to convert to kinetic energy to drive a turbine and create electricity.
