#1
Front (Question)

what is potential energy

Back (Answer)

it is energy stored in objects

#2
Front (Question)

what is kinetic energy

Back (Answer)

it is energy in moving objects

#3
Front (Question)

what is GPE

Back (Answer)

GPE is potential energy stored in objects above the earths surface

#4
Front (Question)

what are the two factors that affect GPE

Back (Answer)

height and mass

#5
Front (Question)

what are the two factors that affect the KE of an object

Back (Answer)

velocity and mass

#6
Front (Question)

how does energy change in falling objects → in 3 dot points

Back (Answer)

• object is held at the highest point, highest GPE, no KE • as it falls, it looses height, the GPE present in the object is transformed into KE • when the object reaches the ground all its GPE has been transformed into KE
