What Is Energy? Kinetic Energy The kinetic energy of an object depends on its speed and mass.
What Is Energy? What is the SI unit for each quantity?
What Is Energy? Gravitational Potential Energy The rock climbers have gravitational potential energy, which is potential energy related to an object's height.
What Is Energy? Elastic Potential Energy The energy stored in a stretched object, such as the trampoline, is elastic potential energy. Rank the amount of elastic potential energy of the trampoline from greatest to least.
Forms of Energy Nuclear Energy Use the Venn diagram to compare and contrast nuclear fission and nuclear fusion.
Forms of Energy Forms of Energy Many objects in this restaurant have more than one form of energy. Find three objects.
Energy Transformations and Conservation Multiple Transformations A series of energy transformations must occur for you to ride your bike. What are the forms of energy involved in each transformation?
Energy Transformations and Conservation Pendulum A continuous transformation between potential and kinetic energy occurs in a pendulum. What are the types of energy the pendulum has at positions A, B, and C?
Energy Transformations and Conservation Conserving Energy While You Ride Transformations between potential and kinetic energy occur during a roller coaster ride. How much potential and kinetic energy does the coaster have at each point?
