A 1200 kg automobile is traveling at a velocity of 100 m s is its energy potential or kenetic?
It's clearly got a lot of kinetic energy, but if the car is on an elevated freeway, it also has some potential energy. The kinetic energy can be calculated as E=1/2*mv2, or one-half of the mass times velocity squared. So .5*1200*10000=6,000,000 Joules of energy.
What happens to the gravitational potential energy as the pendulum starts back up towards its highest point?
The pendulum's momentum or kinetic energy is converted to gravitational potential energy until all of the kinetic energy is converted. The pendulum stops.
If a hammer was hitting a nail what kind of force is it?
It is kinetic energy.
A ball falling through the air has what kind of energy?
-- It has both potential and kinetic energy. -- The farther it falls, the less potential energy it has. -- Its kinetic energy keeps increasing until it reaches its terminal velocity, then the KE becomes constant. -- There's also some heat energy involved, on account of the friction between the ball and the air. That energy transfers between the ball and the air in a way that's probably quite complex.
As ice cools from 273 K to 263 K the average kinetic energy of its molecules?
decrease
How many times does the kinetic energy of a car increase when traveling 60 mph as opposed to traveling 15 mph?
60/15 = 4The KE of an object is proportional to the square of its speed.Multiplying the speed by 4 increases the KE by (4)2 = 16 .
What energy is in a traveling bullet?
kinetic energy
What is the relationship between speed and kinetic energy?
The kinetic energy of an object is proportional to the square of its velocity (speed). In other words, If there is a twofold increase in speed, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of four. If there is a threefold increase in speed, the kinetic energy will increase by a factor of nine.
How do you increase the kinetic energy of a skateboard?
Since kinetic energy depends on mass and speed, you can increase either of these.
What is the result of increasing the temp of a gas?
The kinetic energy will increase
How do molecules gain kinetic energy?
Heating increase the kinetic energy.
What type of energy a car is traveling 45 mph have?
Kinetic Energy
Why drift velocity increases on increasing temperature?
because the kinetic energy of electron increase with increase in temperature. this increase in kinetic energy increase drift velocity
What is the kinetic energy of a 22500 lb truck traveling 55 mph?
The kinetic energy of a 22500 lb truck traveling 55 mph is 1/2mv2 is 3084.808kJ.
What causes an increase in the kinetic energy of atoms within an element and an increase in the kinetic energy of molecules or ions within a compound?
Heat cause kinetic energy within an element or compound.
What variable can increase an objects kinetic energy?
the varible b can objects kinetic energy
What are the changes in the kinetic energy as a substance is heated to its melting point?
The kinetic energy increase.
