Basically, if it moves, it has kinetic energy. And if it is above ground level, it has gravitational potential energy.

What type of energy does a moving ball have?

A moving ball has kinetic energy, which is energy associated with its motion.


As a ball falls what type of energy decreases and what type of energy increases?

As a ball falls, its potential energy decreases as it converts to kinetic energy. As it moves closer to the ground, its kinetic energy increases at the expense of potential energy.


What type of energy does a ball have when it falling through the air?

When a ball is falling through the air, it has both kinetic and potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, while potential energy is the energy stored due to the ball's position relative to the ground. As the ball falls, potential energy is converted to kinetic energy.


What type of energy transformation occurs when you throw a ball in the air and catch it?

When you throw a ball in the air and catch it, the initial energy transformation is from mechanical energy (kinetic) to potential energy (gravitational potential). When the ball falls back down, the potential energy is converted back to kinetic energy.


When a ball begins to fall Gravitational Potential Energy is converted to what type of energy?

Kinetic energy


What type of energy is involved when a ball is dropped?

When a ball is dropped, the energy involved is primarily gravitational potential energy being converted into kinetic energy as the ball accelerates towards the ground. When the ball hits the ground, some of this kinetic energy is transferred to the ground as impact energy.


What type of enery does the wrecking ball use to destroy the walls?

The wrecking ball primarily relies on kinetic energy to destroy walls. As it swings back and forth, the wrecking ball gains momentum and upon impact with the wall, transfers this kinetic energy resulting in destruction.


As a baseball flies through the air after being hit what type of energy does it have?

The Ball has energy in the form of potential energy as if it was released it would fall to the ground. The pitcher uses chemical energy to move his arm and give momentum to the ball. The ball's energy is now transformed to kinetic energy as it moves through the air.


What type of energy is it when you throw a ball upward and it falls?

The ball has both potential energy when it is thrown upward (due to its position) and kinetic energy when it falls (due to its motion). As it falls, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy.


What type of energy is used before and after a ball is bounced?

Gravitational potential energy before the ball is bounced which changes to kinetic energy and then to elastic potential energy.


What type of energy does a ball at rest have?

A ball at rest has potential energy due to its position relative to a reference point, such as the ground. This potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy when the ball is in motion.


What type of energy does a ball thrown in the air have at its lowest point?

A ball thrown in the air at its lowest point has mostly kinetic energy, which is energy of motion. At the lowest point, the ball's potential energy (due to its height) is minimal while its kinetic energy is maximized.
