What are Kinetic and Potential Energy?

WARM UP SILENTLY WRITE DOWN THE QUESTIONS AND ANSWER THEM. 1. Give me an example of a balanced force that you experienced this morning 2. Give me an example of an unbalanced force that you experienced this morning 3. What is Potential energy? 4. What is Kinetic Energy?

What is ENERGY? Energy is the ability to do work. Everything that happens in the world uses energy! Most of the time we can’t see energy, but it is everywhere around us!

Batteries store energy! This car uses a lot of energy Batteries store energy! We get our energy from FOOD! Even this sleeping puppy is using stored energy.

How is all energy divided? Potential Energy Kinetic Energy

Potential Energy is… The energy stored in an object. "Potential" simply means the energy has the ability to do something useful later on.

Examples of Potential Energy: A stretched rubber band.. Water at the top of a waterfall.. Yo–Yo held in your hand.. A drawn Bow and Arrow…

The higher an object, the more potential energy. The more mass an object has, the more potential energy it has.

Which object has more potential energy?

ANSWER A This brick has more mass than the feather; therefore more potential energy!

Changing an objects’ height can change its potential energy. If I want to drop an apple from the top of one of these three things, where will be the most potential energy? A C B

ANSWER A The higher the object, the more potential energy!

Potential Energy Converted to Kinetic Energy… When stored energy begins to move, the object now transfers from potential energy into kinetic energy.

Kinetic Energy Is… The energy of a moving object. "Kinetic" means movement! When stored energy is being used up, it is making things move or happen.

Examples of Kinetic Energy:

The faster the object moves, the more kinetic energy is produced. The greater the mass and speed of an object, the more kinetic energy there will be.

When these objects move at the same speed, which will have more kinetic energy?

ANSWER The semi- truck has more mass; therefore, more kinetic energy!

An object has the MOST kinetic energy when it’s movement is the GREATEST. When an object has the LEAST potential energy, it has the MOST kinetic energy.

A water bottle is knocked off a desk A water bottle is knocked off a desk. When does the bottle have the MOST kinetic energy? A. At the top of the fall. B. In the middle of the fall. C. At the bottom of the fall.

C. At the bottom of the fall. It has the most kinetic energy when its movement and speed are greatest, which is at the bottom of the fall right before it hits the ground. When an object has the LEAST potential energy is when it has the MOST kinetic energy. BrainPop

Roller Coasters When does the train on this roller coaster have the MOST potential energy? AT THE VERY TOP! The HIGHER the train is lifted by the motor, the MORE potential energy is produced. At the top of the hill the train has a huge amount of potential energy, but it has very little kinetic energy.

As the train accelerates down the hill the potential energy is converted into kinetic energy. There is very little potential energy at the bottom of the hill, but there is a great amount of kinetic energy.

When does the train on this roller coaster have the MOST kinetic energy? (When is it moving the fastest?) (When does it have the LEAST potential energy???) At the bottom of the tallest hill!

Notes All energy is divided into two types: potential and kinetic. Potential Energy: The energy stored in an object. Kinetic Energy: The energy of a moving object. Energy is never created or destroyed. It is always stored or transferred.
