AB
Kinetic EnergyAnything that moves
Potential EnergyStored energy - not moving yet
examples of potential energyapple hanging on a tree
examples of kinetic energyFootball in the air
FrictionResistance to motion caused by two objects moving against each other
Examples of more frictionBrakes pressing against a tire, tire rubbing against the street,sandpaper, any rough surface that causes things to slow down
Examples of less frictionwax paper, plastic wrap, aluminum foil, any smoother surface
Examples of Increasing Forceheavier objects need more force to be moved
Motiondescribed using Direction and Speed (Miles per Hour)
ForceThe push and pull that causes a change in motion
Speeda measure of the distance an object travels in a certain amount of time
Examples of increasing speedgraphs:
MassThe more mass, the more force need to move it
