  1. Created by: Faith Cohen EnergyPotential & Kinetic

  2. Energy is the ability to do work or cause a change in direction, speed, shape or temperature of an object.

  3. Energy comes in many forms: • Electrical • Chemical • Sound • Thermal • Nuclear • Mechanical • Gravitational

  4. All energy can be grouped into:

  5. Potential: • While work is waiting to be done, when there is potential for work to be performed, we call it potential energy.

  6. An object can store energy: • By lifting it up: Gravitational Potential Energy • By stretching or squashing it: Elastic Potential Energy

  7. An object can increase its potential energy: • Increase the object’s weight. • Increase the height an object is raised to.

  8. Potential Energy Examples

  9. Potential Energy often turns into Kinetic Energy

  10. Kinetic Energy is the energy of motion (movement). Moving objects have energy: When work is actually being done we call it kinetic energy.

  11. Kinetic Energy is measured by how much work is done to change an object’s motion. Mass and velocity both affect kinetic energy. Higher Velocity = Higher Kinetic Energy

  12. Kinetic Energy Examples

  13. Both Kinetic & Potential

  14. Potential Energy Kinetic Energy

  15. Assignment: Create a mind map all about kinetic and potential energy. You must include at least 5 pictures for each type of energy.
