Gravitational Potential Energy B.) What type of energy did it have right before it hit the nail? Kinetic Energy or Motion Energy C.)Was the energy transformed or transferred from GPE to KE? EXPLAIN!!!!!!!!!!!! Transforming because it changed energy types D.) Some of the kinetic energy of the rod was NOT transferred to the kinetic energy of the nail being driven into the block. Where did this energy go? (circle ALL that apply) Heat Into the tube Sound Your finger Back into GPE 4.) 5.) Activity #55-Roller Coaster Energy 1.) What is the difference between and energy transfer and an energy transformation? The energy type remains the same during an energy transfer and changes during a transformation. 2.) Look at the diagram of a roller coaster above. At which point does this roller coaster: a. have the most gravitational potential energy? W b. have the most kinetic energy? X c. have both kinetic and gravitational potential energy? X, Y, Z
3.) True/False and Explain. Since the rollercoaster is moving faster at point X, it has more total energy than point W. FALSE, the roller coaster has more kinetic energy but the total energy of the rollercoaster and surrounding system does not change. (the actual rollercoaster has less energy because some of the energy was transformed into non-useful types of energy such as heat and sound) 4.) Why can t a rollercoaster go up a hill that is higher than the hill it just came down? Because it does not have enough energy 5.)
