If an object moves in such a manner as to conserve its total mechanical energy, then ____________

the sum of the kinetic energy and the potential energy remains the same throughout its motion

the total mechanical energy of an object is the

KE+PE of the object at any instant during its motion

Is measured in the unit Joules

both

if an object is at rest on the ground it certainly does not possess this form of energy

both

what would always be true of an object possessing a KE of 0 Joules

it is at rest

what would always be true of an object possessing a PE of 0 Joules

it is on the ground

kinetic

Is dependent upon an object's speed and mass

kinetic

The energy an object possesses due to its motion.

kinetic

Depends on the object's mass and height
