Energy Flashcards
1
Q
What is Kinetic energy?
A
the energy an object possesses due to its motion
2
Q
What are the two main components for Kinetic energy?
A
Speed - the faster, the more kinetic energy
Mass - the heavier the more kinetic energy (as long as objects has same speed)
3
Q
Sum for most kinetic energy?
A
E(k) = 1/2 MV (Squared)
Energy (kinetic) = 1/2 mass (kg) x velocity (squared) - sake of question same as speed measured in m/s
