Potential & Kinetic Energy

Learn about potential and kinetic energy!

Roller Coaster Car Label each car with the amount of Potential kinetic Energy. PE=100 KE=0 PE=50 KE=50 KE=100 PE=0 KE=75 PE=25 When you do work you are exerting _. Push Pull Energy Power The energy stored in an object is called _. Joule Kinetic Potential Transformed The unit of measure for potential and kinetic energy is the _. Newton Meter Watt Joule Distance (height) and mass determine the amount of _ energy in an object. Kinetic Potential Solar Thermal An object falling from 50m will have _ potential than an object falling from 30m. Greater Less Equal Lower if you have two objects with different masses about to fall from the same height, which one will have the greatest potential energy? smallest flattest largest roundest The amount of kinetic energy in an object is determined by its....... Speed mass Height mass Speed velocity Height velocity This type of energy is caused by motion. Kinetic Potential Solar electrical The faster an object moves the greater it's _ energy. Kinetic Potential Solar electrical An object's potential energy will increase with_ Speed mass Height mass Speed velocity height velocity Sort each situation as Potential Kinetic Energy Potential Energy A basketball sit on the rim before falling into the hoop A diver just before she dives off the 30m platform. A baseball just before being released by the pitcher. Kinetic Energy A bobsled is moving at its fastest speed around the final turn. A golf ball as it gains height after being hit by the driver. A swimmer in the middle of a 50m race.
