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 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 is the main type of energy conversion that happens to a ball thrown in the air as it goes up?

The main type of energy conversion that happens to a ball thrown in the air as it goes up is from kinetic energy (energy of motion) to potential energy (stored energy due to position). As the ball moves upwards against the force of gravity, its kinetic energy decreases while its potential energy increases.


When something is dropped what type of energy transfer takes place?

When something is dropped, potential energy is converted into kinetic energy as it falls due to gravity.


What type of energy increases when when an object becomes warmer?

The type of energy that increases when an object becomes warmer is thermal energy. This is the internal energy of a system due to the movement of its particles.


What type of energy does a moving ball have?

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


What type of energy increases with its height?

gravitational potential energy


What type of ball transfers the most energy?

Super Ball. :)


Why does rubber bounce higher than plastic?

The simple answer to this is that the rubber ball is more 'elastic' than the tennis ball and, assuming they are both dropped from the same height onto the same surface, the tennis ball 'loses' more energy than the rubber ball when it strikes the surface the ball is bouncing off. Of course no energy is truly ever lost but rather it is transferred or converted into other forms, in this case the energy will be converted into thermal energy (as the balls deform upon striking the surface due to friction within the materials), sound (the noise you hear when the ball strikes the surface) and to varying extents energy is transferred to the surface which the balls are striking. This energy 'loss' is the reason why the balls do not return to the height the balls were dropped from originally and the amount of energy 'loss' will vary with the type of ball dropped.


What type of energy increases when an objects atoms move faster?

thermal energy.


Which type of energy increases when an objects atoms move faster?

Thermal Energy


What type of energy increases as height increases?

Gravitational potential energy increases as height increases. This is because the higher an object is lifted against gravity, the more potential energy it possesses due to its position in the gravitational field.
