U2C1 Vocabulary
When we use energy, it does NOT disappear • energy transfers from object to object • A car engine burns gasoline, converting the chemical energy in gasoline into mechanical energy • Solar cells change radiant (light) energy into electrical energy
Energy • causes interactions • ability to do work or cause change
potential energy stored energy
kinetic energy energy in motion
14-1 What is energy? red text pages 292-293
Energy • causes interactions • ability to do work or cause change
1. kinetic energy -the energy of motion ANYTHINGmoving has kinetic energy • Show me your spirit fingers
different mass, same speed • kinetic energy - motion energy • Depends on mass and speed of object • mass, KE 20 kph 20 kph
same mass, different speeds • kinetic energy - motion energy • Depends on mass and speed of object 20 kph speed, KE 75 kph
factors that effect kinetic energy mass, KE speed, KE
2. potential energy- energy that is stored and held in readiness ANYTHINGready and waiting to move has potential energy
2. potential energy- stored energy ANYTHINGready and waiting to move has potential energy
2. potential energy- stored energy PE = weight x height
PE = weight x height height, PE
PE = weight x height weight, PE
factors that effect potential energy height, PE mass, PE
What are the 2 types of energy? kinetic energy -the energy of motion potential energy -energy that is stored and held in readiness
factors that effect kinetic & potential energy mass, KE speed, KE height, PE mass, PE
mass, KE 100lbs 150 lbs
speed, KE When does the car have the most KE?: At 25 mph At 55 mph At 100 mph
mass, PE 175 lbs 150 lbs
energy can be transferred • potential energy can be transferred into kinetic energy and vice versa
height , PE height , PE kinetic & potential energy speed , KE speed , KE
potential energy can be transferred into kinetic energy and vice versa mass, KE speed, KE height, PE mass, PE
1. Are there any points at which the kinetic energy of the yo-yo is zero? Points 1, 5 and 9
2. At what points is the potential energy a minimum? Point 5
3. At what points is potential energy a maximum? Points 1 & 9
4. What is the energy doing? energy is transferring from potential energy to kinetic energy and vice versa As the yo-yo goes down, PE and KE As the yo-yo goes up, PE and KE
