Energy is always involved when physical or chemical changes occur in matter
You can detect the effects of energy when matter is moved, when it reacts, or when energy is transformed from one form to another form
Law of Conservation of Energy:Energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only change from one form to another
An object has potential energy because of its position, shape, or chemistry
An object’s potential energy is increasing as it gets higher
The more mass an object has the more potential energy it has
The amount of kinetic energy an object has depends on its mass and speed
The faster the object goes, the more kinetic energy the object has
An object with a larger mass will have more kinetic energy than a smaller object at the same height
As the potential energy increases, the kinetic energy decreases
As the potential energy decreases, the kinetic energy increases
