Now that I think about it... I believe they do. The book being heavier would fall with more force than the feather if it fell off. You should research it.
No. The potential energy of an obect also depends on its mass.
YES!
This might help... My classmate remembered pi(3.14) by sitting in different positions Ex. Remember 10 of the numbers sitting up, 10 more sitting down, 10 more with one eye closed, 10 more with hands on her head.
A book, no matter where it sits, is an organized and bound assembly of paper with information stored on it. The book has some mass, and like any mass, its gravitational potential energy relative to the floor can be defined in terms of its mass and its distance above the floor.
It is still sitting!
No. The potential energy of an obect also depends on its mass.
Sitting in a chair is an example of gravitational potential energy. This is because when you are sitting in a chair, you have the potential to fall down due to gravity. Your position above the ground gives you potential energy that can be converted to kinetic energy if you were to stand up and fall.
Yes, the glass jar sitting on a shelf has potential energy because it has the potential to fall due to gravity. This potential energy is stored in the jar due to its position above the ground.
Yes, a book sitting on a shelf has potential energy due to its position. When you lift the book off the shelf, its potential energy decreases as it moves closer to the ground.
he is the one with the funny feather hat sitting on a box hes is on the right side of Bruce
No, a glass of water sitting on a table does not have potential energy. Potential energy is the energy an object has due to its position or state, such as when the glass of water is raised above the table.
If it's not moving it doesn't have any energy
No, the energy of a frog sitting on a lily pad would be potential energy, as it is not currently in motion but has the potential to move due to its position above the water.
YES!
The potential energy of a 0.480kg bird sitting 22.8m above the ground is 107.25 joules
Potential Energy. Because it is the energy at rest =))))
Energy can neither be created nor destroyed. It is converted to other forms of energy. There is potential energy and kinetic energy. Sitting on your bicycle on top of the hill you have no kinetic energy, only potential energy. When you ride down the hill, the potential energy is used up (you go down the hill) and it converts to kinetic energy (speed). "What happens when you stop at the bottom of the hill - wasn't the potential and kinetic energy destroyed?" No. All the potential energy was converted to kinetic energy. The kinetic energy was converted to heat through the wind resistance. So, if you had an extremely accurate thermometer, you would see the air and bicycle temperature rise as you went down the hill.
