  1. Potential & Kinetic Energy Your Name Here

  2. Directions: Use your skills to research each of the items in the following PowerQuest™. Then, use your computer skills to place the information to create a unique PowerPoint similar to the slides provided. You may customize colors and appearance, but not delete elements of content. You may save your product in your backpack on EDMODO, flash drive, or your student drive.

  3. Complete the Potential & Kinetic Energy Power Quest using at least three of the following websites: • http://www.sciencekids.co.nz/sciencefacts/energy.html • http://www.energyquest.ca.gov/story/chapter01.html • http://www.eia.gov/kids/energy.cfm?page=1 • http://www.pdclipart.org/ • Google images • http://en.allexperts.com/q/Science-Kids-3250/f/Energy.htm • http://multimedia.mcb.harvard.edu/flash/rhino.swf • You may also use your ENERGY Vocab KIM chart and Power Point!

  4. Energy: What are the two types? In this space answer this question: The type of energy you have depends on what? In this space name the other type of energy. In this space name one type of energy In this space answer the questions: What is Energy? What is the measurement(unit) for energy?

  5. Click on the link below to listen to the Potential and Kinetic energy song: -Scroll down to the middle of the page - Click on play http://www.kidsknowit.com/educational-songs/play-educational-song.php?song=kinetic%20and%20potential%20energy

  6. Potential Energy In this space tell what Potential Energy is. Find a second picture that illustrates Potential Energy. Find a picture that illustrates Potential Energy caption caption In this space name the 3 types of Potential energy. Which type is the most important to you? Justify your answer. Pictureand caption Pictureand caption Picture and caption Find a picture for each type of potential energy and put in the boxes above. .

  7. Potential Energy Formula • Look at this Example: A hiker weighing 680 Newtons • Climbs 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 In this space write the formula for Potential Energy. 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’s Gravitational Potential energy?

  8. Kinetic Energy In this space tell what Kinetic energy is. Find a second picture that illustrates Kinetic Energy. Find a picture that illustrates 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 to Get rolling? Once rolling, the bowling ball would have more k______ energy then a golf ball rolling at the same Velocity (speed). caption . Pictureand caption Pictureand caption Picture and caption What are 3 ways you use kinetic energy in your everyday lives?

  9. In this space write the Formula for Kinetic energy. • Look at this Example: A 20 Kg shopping cart • moving at 5 m/s. • 20 x (5)2 (squared) divided by 2 • 20 x 25 divided by 2 • 500 divided by 2 • = 250 Joules In this space solve this problem: Find the Kinetic Energy (Use the formula above and plug in the numbers) A 10 Kg wagon moving at 5 m/s.

  10. Go to http://www.quia.com/cz/8072.htm. Take the Potential vs. Kinetic Energy quiz. • a. Click on “Click here to begin”. • b. Answer the questions. • c. Click “check answers”. Correct any incorrect answers. • d. Click “Next exercise” and answer the following questions. • e. Click “check answers”. Correct any incorrect answers. • f. Click “next exercise” and answer the following questions. • g. Once you have collected 3 coins, you may exit and go on to • number 2. • 2. Go to http://www.quia.com/rr/35748.html to play “Who Wants To Be a Millionaire: Energy Edition”. You only get TWO chances to try and win $1,000,000. • a. Click on “Click here to begin” • b. Answer the questions (you may receive hints from the computer) • c. Once you have attempted twice to win the $1,000,000 you may move onto the next slide.

  11. Go tohttp://multimedia.mcb.harvard.edu/flash/rhino.swf. a. Click on “Falling Rhinoceros”. b. Watch what happens to the Rhinoceros. c. Answer the following questions: -During the Rhinos fall most of the Potential energy is converted into ________ and a small amount of__________. -Upon impact, the Kinetic energy is converted into what 3 forms of energy? ____________, ________________,________________ -After the fall the Rhinos energy remains ________________.

  12. Potential and Kinetic Energy Energy can only be changed into another sort of energy. It can not be _____________________ nor can it be _______________________. Check For Understanding: caption caption In this space give 3 examples of energy being changed to other forms. Pictureand caption Pictureand caption Picture and caption Find a picture for each example and put in boxes above.

  13. Roller Coaster Energy • 1. Go to the links below to learn and review the Potential and Kinetic Energy in a • roller coaster. • After you are done interacting with the roller coaster simulations answer the questions below. • http://gpb.pbslearningmedia.org/resource/hew06.sci.phys.maf.rollercoaster/energy-in-a-roller-coaster-ride/ • http://adventure.howstuffworks.com/roller-coaster3.htm http://gpb.pbslearningmedia.org/asset/mck05_int_rollercoaster/ http://adventure.howstuffworks.com/roller-coaster3.htm • a. What is Potential Energy? At Which point is Potential Energy the greatest?__________ • __________________________________________________________________________ • _________________________________________________________________________ • What is Kinetic Energy? At what point is Kinetic Energy the greatest?________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ • What do you know about the relationship about the Potential and Kinetic energy and the • path of the coaster?_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

  14. More Roller Coaster Energy • Take a virtual ride on the Millennium Force at Cedar Point (Once you open the link scroll down and click on the video on the left side of the page, just below where it says “The best Amusement park In The World”) 2. Answer the question below. https://www.cedarpoint.com/ a. What does a roller coaster have to do with Science and Energy?___________________ _________________________________________________________________________
