Q

movement

A

anything moving has energy in kinetic energy store. energy is transferred when object speeds up, transferred away when slows down.
This depends on mass and speed. greater mass, and faster, more energy there will be.

Formula is:
KE=1/2 x M x v2

Q

raised objects

A

lifting object in gravitational field causes transfer of enerfy to energy store of raised object. higher object, more energy transferred.
change in gravational potential energy= m x g x change in height.
