PPT-CALCULATING POTENTIAL AND KINETIC ENERGY

Potential Energy Definition The stored energy resulting from the relative positions of objects in a system Potential energy is measured in Joules 1 joule 1 kgm²s² Ex An apple is hanging from the branch of a tree The energy that could potentially do work on the apple results from its position above the ground. What is energy? . ENERGY. is the ability to cause change.. There are many different kinds of energy.. Everything around us has energy – YOU have a large amount of energy.. When change occurs, energy is transferred from one object to another.. Pg. 171 - 176. Kinetic Energy. Recall:. A moving object has the ability to do work because it can apply a force to another object and displace it. The energy possessed by moving objects is called . kinetic energy (. 5.2 MECHANICAL ENERGY. ENERGY = . ability to do . WORK. ENERGY = . ability to do . WORK. the energy of an object that . is due . to the object’s motion. KINETIC. POTENTIAL. the energy associated with . What is Energy?. Energy. is the ability to cause change.. . or….. The ability to do work.. Energy is measured in the same units (Joules) as work because energy transfers work.. Different Forms of Energy. Physics of Fun (26min). Energy. Any change in motion requires – . Energy. .. Work. is done when a . change. occurs.. Work. can’t be done without . energy. !. When an object or organism does work on another object, some of its energy is . Cole Mihalich. 5. th. Grade Science. Mrs. . Auble’s. class. Potential:. Stretched . Rubber Band. A Stretched . Rubber.

All . forms of energy can be in either of two states. :. KINETIC . ENERGY. POTENTIAL ENERGY. The ability of a system to do work.. Two types of energy:. Kinetic Energy. Potential Energy. States of Energy. All . forms of energy can be in either of two states. :. KINETIC . ENERGY. POTENTIAL ENERGY. Gravitational Potential Energy & Kinetic Energy  GPE When you lift an object up, energy is transferred from your muscles in to gravitational potential energy of the object. Gravitational potential energy (GPE) is energy stored in an object because of its position in the earths gravitational field. Unit 4: Work, Power, and Energy I. Work When a force acts upon an object to cause a displacement of the object, it is said that work was done upon the object. There are three key ingredients to work: LO:. . We will understand that energy can take many forms but the total energy in a system is constant.. . CT: . I . will investigate and calculate the changes of different forms of energy.. . The Law . Kinetic Energy. The kinetic energy of the center of mass of an object moving through a linear distance is called translational kinetic energy. . KE = ½ mv. 2. As an object rotates it experiences a type of kinetic energy known as rotational kinetic energy. Learning Objectives. I can mathematically rearrange the kinetic energy equation.. I can calculate Kinetic Energy using . the formula.. Kinetic Energy Definition and Formula. The energy an object has due to its motion. Mechanical Energy. Kinetic Energy. Work-Energy Theorem. Gravitational Potential Energy. Energy is Conserved. Energy Conservation Application. Summary. Mechanical Energy. Mechanical Energy is composed of both:.
