Kinetic and Potential Energy *
What is energy? Matching Match the vocabulary terms with their definitions. Kinetic Energy Energy from velocity Potential Energy Energy from height Velocity how fast something is moving Mass how heavy something is Kinetic Energy Equation Potential Energy Equation Marker sitting on the top of the board Example of potential energy Throwing a ball across the room Example of Kinetic Energy Label the Picture Use the words: Kinetic Energy and Potential Energy to label the diagram. (Hint: Think definition of each energy) Potential Energy Kinetic Energy Potential Energy Fill in the blank for the definitions of Kinetic and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is the energy from velocity. Objects that are moving have kinetic energy. Potential energy is energy created by the height of the object from the ground. When an object is changing from having Kinetic to Potential energy, this is an example of energy transformation. This is because one form of energy is changing into a different form of energy.When an egg is falling, the potential energy at the top is transformed into kinetic energy when it is falling. Write out the formula for potential energy (PE) Write out the formula for Kinetic Energy (KE) Energy Calculations What is the kinetic energyof a 5kg ball falling at a velocity of 10 m Energy Calculations What is the potential energy of a 5kg ball falling at a height of 10 m? Determine the amount of potential energy of a 5.0-N book that is moved to three different shelves on a bookcase. The height of each shelf is 1.0 m, 1.5 m, and 2.0 m. What is the kinetic energy of a 2,000.-kg boat moving at 5.0 m What is the velocity of an 500-kg elevator that has 4000 J of energy? What is the mass of an object traveling at 30 m if it has 33,750 J of energy?
