- Q1How much energy will be transferred to the kinetic store if three times the amount of work is done on kicking a football?The same amount of energy.Nine times as much energy.Three times as much energy.30s
- Q2If friction and air resistance are ignored, how much energy is dissipated by a toy car moving across a table?None of the car's energy.Most of the car's energy.A tiny amount of the car's energy.All of the car's energy.30s
- Q3What happens to the amount of energy in the kinetic store of a ball if it is moving at two times the speed?The amount of energy in the kinetic store does not change.The amount of energy in the kinetic store is two times bigger.The amount of energy in the kinetic store is four times bigger.30s
- Q4What is kinetic energy?The total amount of energy that a moving object has.The type of energy that is in the kinetic store.The amount of energy an object has that is in its kinetic store.The type of energy an object has because it is moving.30s
- Q5What is the equation for calculating the amount of kinetic energy of an object?kinetic energy =kinetic energy =kinetic energy = ½Kinetic energy = ½30s
