- 1. WHAT HAS ENERGY?: A BRIEF EXPLANATION OF ENERGY GOOD EXAMPLE Grade 6 SOL 6.2: The student will investigate and understand basic sources of energy, their origins, transformations, and uses. Key concepts include potential and kinetic energy
- 2. ENERGY
- 10. ENERGY
Editor's Notes
- Energy is defined as the ability to do work These are all examples of energy and specifically, these are all examples of either kinetic energy or potential energy.
- Kinetic energy is defined as the energy in motion. The energy is transferred from the cords to the strainer to the squirrel once the squirrel is released. The kinetic energy is transfer person to person as they complete the domino effect

- Kinetic energy is dependent on mass Mass is the weight/force on the earth an object contains. The bigger the object the grater the kinetic energy. For this example which object will have the greatest kinetic energy? That’s right the green ball had the most kinetic energy. This is visible because it caused a bigger splash( transfer of energy).
- Kinetic energy is also dependent on speed. The faster an object the greater the kinetic energy. Which object has the greatest kinetic energy?
- Potential energy is the energy an object has at rest. The ball has the greatest potential energy at the top of the hill.
- AS you notice in the examples, both forms of energy are present. Before the ball hits the mouse trap the mouse trap is experiencing potential energy and then after the impact, kinetic.
