GRAV POT ENERGY AND KINETIC ENERGY Flashcards
1
Q
what is gravitational potential energy
A
energy an object has when raised above the ground
2
Q
what is kinetic energy
A
energy of a moving object
3
Q
what does kinetic energy depend on
describe the relationship between mass, speed and kinetic energy
