Energy 10/27 Warm-up
Copy the following in your science journal
Which of the following is an example of potential energy?
a. A rolling ballb. A flowing riverc. Your uneaten lunchd. A flying airplane
Energy
The best solution is to choose a first hill height of 80 m, a second hill height of 70 m, and the elliptical loop. This will give your coaster the maximum possible energy for the rest of ride, and will allow the coaster to reach the top of the second hill. The elliptical shaped loop will be fun and will avoid the dangerous effects of a circular loop, which can't yet be safely done.

Roller Coaster A
Energy
Your roller coaster will offer a short, deadly ride. Your coaster will follow the curve of a projectile, leave the track and become airborne part way down, bounce, and then crash at the bottom of the hill.
Roller Coaster B
Roller coaster B
Energy
This is an impossible design. The first hill must be higher than the second, or your coaster won't have enough potential energy to climb the second hill.
Roller Coaster CRoller Coaster C
Energy
Exit Path: This path is unsafe. Your coaster will become airborne and crash. Because your coaster is going very fast, it needs a long, "flat" path.
Roller Coaster DRoller Coaster D

1.Describe kinetic energy and potential energy for various real world examples.
Energy
Introduction to Kinetic & Potential EnergyKinetic Energy is the energy of movement or motion.
Examples: Any object or person that is moving has a certain amount of kinetic energy, particles that make up matter are constantly moving.
Potential Energy is stored energy.
Examples: (Chemical) energy stored in a battery, a stretched rubber band (Elastic), or a person or an object at a high height (Gravitational)

Learning Objective
1. Describe kinetic energy and potential energy for various real world examples.
Energy - What Is Energy?
Kinetic Energy
Kinetic energy increases as mass and velocity increases.
Energy - What Is Energy?
Potential Energy
Gravitational potential energy increases as weight and height increase.
Energy - Energy Transformations and Conservation
Energy Transformations
Most forms of energy can be transformed into other forms.
Energy
Conclusions (in complete sentences)1. State the relationships between the following
variables:a) Mass and KE (As mass increases, the KE…)b) Velocity and KEc) Mass and Gravitational PEd) Height above the ground and Gravitational PE
2. Where on the ramp would the KE & PE be about equal? Explain your answer with evidence from the experiment. Hint (answer first)- Where was there 0 KE but plenty of PE and 0 PE but plenty of KE?
3. So, was any energy lost (outside of friction and human error), or was the energy transformed from one form to another (such as KE to PE or PE to KE)? How was the energy transformed as the go-car went down the ramp?
Energy - Energy Transformations and Conservation
Transformations BetweenPotential and Kinetic Energy
A pendulum continuously transforms energy from kinetic to potential energy and back.
Energy
