9. Work & Energy

Which of the following statements best explains the relationship between $\mathrm{potential energy}$ and $\mathrm{kinetic energy}$ in terms of energy transfer?

Which type of energy is primarily possessed by a ball as it falls through the air?

Which of the following is a form of kinetic energy?

A battery is connected to a $21.0\Omega$ resistor. If the circuit operates for one minute, how much work $W$ does the battery perform during this time? (Assume the current through the resistor is $I$ and the battery voltage is $V$.)

(II) For a satellite of mass m_S in a circular orbit of radius r_S around the Earth, determine its kinetic energy K.

A car of mass $m$ starts from rest at the top of a hill of height $h$ and coasts down into a valley, neglecting friction and air resistance. What will be the car's speed as it coasts into the gas station on the other side of the valley at ground level?

How does energy transform from $\mathrm{potential energy}$ to $\mathrm{kinetic energy}$ in a system?

Which statement best describes the difference between $\mathrm{potential energy}$ and $\mathrm{kinetic energy}$?

Which of the following is an example of mechanical energy?

A proton is released from rest at the dot in a region with a uniform electric field pointing to the right. Afterward, the proton:
