changes in energy stores

changes in energy stores

there is a kinetic store of energy assosiated with a moving object

the greater the mass and the faster it is moving, the greater the energy in the kinetic store

we can calculate the kinetic energy of a moving objectusing the equation

Ek= 1/2 m v2 (squared)

kinetic energy = o.5 mass x (speed)2 (squared)

gravitational potential energy

there is a gravitational potential store of energy associated…
