Conservation of Energy Kaitlyn, Hannah, and Nicole • Did the total amount of money change?
Conservation of Energy When does a roller coaster have most of its energy as GPE? When is KE greatest? A B
Calculating Spring Potential Energy Spring Potential Energy – the internal energy of a spring due to its compression or strength; SPE = 1/2kx2 k – spring constant; a spring that is difficult to compress or stretch will have a higher spring constant
What Do You Think Now? How does a roller coaster get to its highest point? Does it cost more to lift the roller coaster if it is full of people?
