1. The dotted line on the chart shows the energy of the Skater, where could she be on the track? The point E is Zero PE The track is saved, but you have to change the skater to the girl. It is the default track, but I used the pause to place her at the very top of the track and moved the track so that she reaches zero PE (nearly)
2. The bar graph shows the energy of the Skater, where could she be on the track?
3. The pie graph shows the energy of the Skater, where could she be on the track? KE B PE
4. If the ball is at point 4, which chart could represent the ball’s energy? KE PE A. B. C. D. 2 1 3 4 The track is saved, but you have to select the ball and give it maximum mass to see the pie well. I used the loop track with the ball skater and made it more massive. The answer is C A is at 1 or 3 B is at the lowest point on the track
5. If a heavier ball is at point 4, how would the pie chart change? KE No changes The pie would be larger The PE part would be larger The KE part would be larger PE 2 1 3 4 B Change the ball’s mass to show this
6. As the ball rolls from point 4, the KE bar gets taller 6. As the ball rolls from point 4, the KE bar gets taller. Which way is the ball rolling? At 4 Next step 2 1 3 4 You will need to Zoom out on the bar graph window to see the top of the bars Up Down not enough info
7. The Energy chart of a boy skating looks like this How would you describe his speed? He is at his maximum speed He is stopped He is going his average speed He is going slow He is going fast A
8. The Energy chart of a boy skating looks like this How would you describe his speed? He is at his maximum speed He is stopped He is going his average speed He is going slow He is going fast C Have the students predict by drawing the charts for B, D and E then show the next slide
9. Select a letter for each: stopped, slow and fast B A A slow B stopped C fast
Energy vs Position 10. Sketch this energy position graph. Label where the 5 spots, A-E, could be PE KE He is going his maximum speed He is stopped He is going his average speed He is going slow He is going fast
