1 What type of energy is being used in a pulley system?
Question #1 What type of energy is being used in a pulley system? Answer: mechanical

2 Question #2 Answer: Heat or thermal
A car engine can’t have an efficiency of 100% because some of the mechanical energy is converted to energy by friction. Answer: Heat or thermal

3 potential: point W kinetic: point X
Question #3 Where on the roller coaster does the car have the most potential energy and most kinetic energy? Answer: potential: point W kinetic: point X

4 Question #4 Fill in the blanks: Answer: KE: depends on mass and speed
Kinetic energy depends on mass and . Potential energy depends on mass and . Answer: KE: depends on mass and speed PE: depends on mass and height

5 A light bulb converts energy to and energy
Question #5 A light bulb converts energy to and energy Answer: converts electrical energy into light (electromagnetic) energy and heat (thermal) energy

6 Question #6 What is the energy conversion when a plant goes through the process of photosynthesis? Answer: Light (EM) energy is converted to chemical energy (sugar) (100 points)

7 What form of energy do foods, batteries and gasoline contain?
Question #7 What form of energy do foods, batteries and gasoline contain? Answer: chemical energy

8 Law of Conservation of Energy
Question #8 Which scientific law explains why you have the same total amount of energy at every point on a roller coaster? Answer: Law of Conservation of Energy

9 Joule, calorie, kilowatt hour
Question #9 Name three units used to measure work and energy. Answer: Joule, calorie, kilowatt hour

10 Renewable: left side/ nonrenewable: right side
Question #10 Name one renewable and one nonrenewable source of energy. Answers: Renewable: left side/ nonrenewable: right side
