Happy Friday Scientists!DQ:
Which of the following has the most potential energy?A. a car at the top of a hillB. a car speeding down the hillC. a person at the top of a hill
EXPLAIN YOUR ANSWER!!
Today:• Discuss Skateboard Simulation• Reading: Forms of Energy–You may have to finish this as homework!!
• Increasing the mass = ?– Increases the total energy
• Friction = – A force that opposes motion – results from
surfaces moving against each other• With friction –– All the potential energy eventually gets changed
into thermal energy (heat)
Reading: Forms of EnergyGoal: create a mind-map showing the different
types of kinetic and potential energy• Read the handout about forms of kinetic and
potential energyIn each section:
–Highlight in yellow: information about the definition of that type of energy–Highlight in pink: examples of that type of
energy
Reading Notes
• For each type of kinetic energy– Write a sentence that includes a definition AND
explains what is moving.• For each type of potential energy– Write a sentence that includes a definition AND
where or how this type of energy is stored
