Draw and label three lines one for kinetic one for potential and one for total mechanical energy.
Marble energy and work lab.
Enough angles such that the marble does not drastically bounce when transitioning from the angled ruler to the level table top.
Marble launcher marble tape measurer ruler procedure.
Golf ball potential energy.
Sketch a graph that shows how the energy transfers from potential to kinetic energy as a ball falls from the top of a building.
An example of potential energy is a stretched out rubber band the farther you stretch it the more potential energy it has.
Marble energy ii lab included labeled and organized all parts of the lab report.
Marble launch lab purpose.
The more potential energy means more kinetic energy and more kinetic energy means more work can be done.
Work equals the force applied across a distance which causes an object.
Energy is defined as the ability to do work.
We learned about the difference between potential energy stored energy and kinetic energy the energy of moving things.
Potential energy kinetic energy work alisa hilfinger westborough high school westborough ma this activity is based on the common experiment of running a marble down a ramp to do work on a cup.
Potential energy is the energy that is stored in an object.
Golf ball kinetic energy.
Work energy and power the following information is provided to the student.
In this experiment the inclined plane makes work easier by allowing gravity without any help from you to move the marble down the ramp.

When the marble hits the cup at the bottom of the ramp energy is transferred from the marble to the cup causing the cup to move.
First set the launcher so it aims at an angle of 0 degrees.
Once the marble is released the gravitational potential energy of the marble trans forms to kinetic energy.
Determine the potential energy stored in a spring as it is compressed different distances by finding the horizantal distance the ball travels and solving for velocity.
That is why when the steelie was started lower down on the ramp it was not able to push the plow as far.
