Kinetic and Potential Energy Quick Check
3 of 53 of 5 Items
Question
A book is at rest on a flat table. The book is pushed across the table, causing it to move and eventually come to rest again. How does the potential and kinetic energy change during this process?(1 point)
Responses
The potential energy will stay the same as long as the book stays on the table. The kinetic energy increases as the book is pushed across the table.
