3.1 Energy stores and calculations

Card 1 of 25

Gravitational potential energy is stored because of an object's [     ].

A

Radiation is a transfer pathway.

B

The kinetic energy of an object is Ek=12mv2\boxed{E_{\mathrm{k}}=\dfrac{1}{2}mv^2}Ek​=21​mv2​.

C

Gravitational potential energy is stored because of an object's position in a gravitational field.

D

Some kinetic energy is dissipated to thermal stores instead of entering the gravitational store.
