Draw the pendulum into your composition book, page 58. • At what point does the bob have the greatest PE? • At what point does the bob have the lowest PE? • At what point is the KE the greatest?
The process of energy changing from one form to another is called ________________ ___________________.
Lab: Bouncing Balls Problem: Which type of ball looses the most energy after six bounces? Procedure: • Drop each ball from 1 meter above the ground. • Measure how high each bounce is for a total of six bounces. • Repeat 3 times for each different ball.
Data and Conclusions • Average Data • Create a multi-line graph • Each ball a different color • Graph averages
