  1. Exploring Energy Kinetic and Potential

  2. What did we learn last time ? energy kinetic energy potential energy energy transfer

  3. Kinetic Energy Kinetic energy is motion energy The kinetic energy of an object depends on both its mass and its speed. 10 kg

  4. Kinetic energy changes with the mass of an object Kinetic energy changes with the speed of an object squared Kinetic Energy The blue car weighs 1 ton and is traveling 50 mph The truck weighs 2 tons and is traveling 50 mph 2 The truck has _____ times kinetic energy as the blue car.

  5. Kinetic energy changes with the mass of an object Kinetic energy changes with the speed of an object squared Kinetic Energy The blue car weighs 1 ton and is traveling 50 mph The racing car weighs 1 ton and is traveling 100 mph 4 The racing car has ___ times kinetic energy as the blue car.

  6. Potential Energy Potential energy is stored energy Potential energy can be stored in many ways

  7. Gravitational energy is potential energy stored in an object’s height. Gravitational Energy

  8. Chemical energy is potential energy stored in chemical bonds. Chemical Energy

  9. Elastic energy is potential energy stored in the stretching or compression of an object. Elastic Energy

  10. Thermal energy is stored in an object’s temperature. Thermal Energy • At a large scale it looks like potential energy, but on a small scale it looks more like kinetic energy. We’ll talk more about that later!

  11. It’s all energy! kinetic gravitational chemical elastic thermal

  12. Quick Assignment You are a superhero! You have three energy superpowers! Write a paragraph explaining what your superpowers are, how you use them, and what kind of energy they use. Word bank: kinetic energy, potential energy, energy transfer, gravitational energy, chemical energy, elastic energy, thermal energy
