- Q3Which object will have the most kinetic energy?Small object moving slowlyLarge object moving quicklySmall object moving quicklyLarge object moving slowly30sEditDelete
- Q445sEditDelete
- Q5Mechanical energy isPE * KEPE / KEPE - KEPE + KE30sEditDelete
- Q6What happens to the magnitude of mechanical energy (ME) as an object converts energy between potential and kinetic energy.ME decreasesME stays the same (conserved)ME increasesME changes exponentially as position changes30sEditDelete
- Q7Which point (WXYZ) has the potential energy (PE)?ZXYW30sEditDelete
- Q8Which point would have the highest kinetic energy (KE)?XZYW30sEditDelete
- Q9Where will mechanical energy be the highest?It's the same at all points.W - highest point on coasterX - highest velocityZ - End of the ride30sEditDelete
- Q10What does conservation of energy mean?Energy converts between potential and kinetic (if not lost due to friction).Kinetic energy carries the potentialEverything is lost to friction or air resistance so nothing is saved.Potential saves the kinetic energy30sEditDelete
