Revise AQA GCSE Physics 1.1.2 Changes in energy with the question bank, lessons, revision guides, and flashcards.
Students should be able to calculate the amount of energy associated with a moving object, a stretched spring and an object raised above ground level. • The kinetic energy of a moving object can be calculated using the equation: kinetic energy = 0.5 × mass × speed 2, Ek = 1/2 m v2 (kinetic energy, Ek, in joules, J; mass, m, in kilograms, kg; speed, v, in metres per second, m/s). • Students should be able to recall and apply this equation.
