In this space tell what Potential Energy is.
In this space name the 3
types of Potential
energy. Which type is the
most important to you? Justify your answer.
Find a picture for each type of potential energy and put in the boxes above.
In this space write theformula for PotentialEnergy.
Look at this Example: A hiker weighing 680 NewtonsClimbs up a hill 40 meters high. How many Joules of Gravitational Potential Energy (G.P.E.) has the hiker gained?•G.P.E. = Weight x Height•680N x 40m = 27,200 Nm -OR- 27,200 Joules
Potential Energy Formula
In this space solve this problem: Find the Potential energy (Use the formula above and plug in the numbers)
A soccer ball that weighs 10 Newtons is kicked 100 feet into the sky. What is it’sGravitational Potential energy?
Kinetic Energy
In this space answer the questions:
What affects Kinetic energy?
Kinetic Energy depends on an objects m__________and its ___________________.
THINK: Which ball would you have to push harder toGet rolling?Once rolling, the bowling ball would have more k______ energy then a golf ball rolling at the sameVelocity (speed).
