1. 1. What is energy? 2. What is work? 3. Explain how the two are related? 4. What is kinetic energy? 5. Give an example of kinetic energy. 12/10

2. 1/6 1. What is kinetic energy? Potential Energy? 2. What is mechanical energy? 3. Explain what is happening at each letter. 4. If the mechanical energy at C was 100J and the potential was 50J, what is the kinetic energy? 5. If the kinetic energy at D is 100J, what is the potential energy?

3. Energy - Work - the ability to do work occurs when a force causes an object to move in the direction of that force When one object does work on another, energy is transferred. Therefore work is a transfer of energy

4. 1. 2. 3. Tennis player can do work on her racket because she has energy. Energy transfers from person to racket. The racket gains the ability to do work on the ball. Racket hits ball, energy is transferred from racket to ball.

5. Kinetic Energy - energy of motion, dependent on the mass and velocity (speed) of an object Energy depends on mass and velocity (speed)

6. Kinetic Energy = mv22mv22 20 m/s 25 m/s 1 Which vehicle has the most kinetic energy? 2 Why? 3 Which vehicle has the least kinetic energy? 4 Why? The big truck Greatest mass and high velocity Smaller car on left Lower mass and least velocity

7. The faster something is moving the more kinetic energy it has The more massive something is the more kinetic energy it has

8. Potential Energy - Potential energy depends on the weight of the object and its height above the earth’s surface. It is effected by gravity! stored energy, due to position or shape; “energy of position” 1) The energy it takes to pull back the bow is stored until the bow is released! 2) The energy is then transferred to the arrow.

9. Mechanical Energy - the total energy of motion and position of an object (sum of the KE and PE) MECHANICAL ENERGY = Potential energy + Kinetic energy ME = PE + KE As potential energy increases, kinetic energy As potential energy decreases, kinetic energy As potential or kinetic energy changes, mechanical energy decreases increases stays the same

10. Most roller coasters use potential energy stored by gravity on the first hill to provide the energy for the rest of the ride. As the roller coaster goes down the hill, potential energy is transformed into kinetic energy. At the bottom of the first hill, the roller coaster has the highest speed. This is where the roller coaster has the most kinetic energy and very little potential energy. An electric motor pulls a roller coaster car up the first hill by a chain. The roller coaster car gains speed as it falls down to the bottom the first hill. The roller coaster car then goes up a second smaller hill. Describe the energy transformations: The __________________ energy in the wires are transformed into mechanical energy by the motor. The mechanical energy of the motor is transformed into _____________ energy of the roller coaster at the top of the first hill. As the roller coaster falls, its ______________ energy is transformed into mostly ___________ energy at the bottom of the hill. As the roller coaster climbs to the top of the second, smaller hill, some of its ___________ energy is transformed into _______________ energy.

16. 1) When is the coaster’s potential energy at its highest? 2) When is the coaster’s kinetic energy at its highest? 3) What condition must be met for the coaster to continue moving after the first hill? 4) In theory, the mechanical energy shouldn’t change at all, but in reality it decreases a bit. Why?
