Lesson 4: Energy change amd Conservation
| What type of energy does a ball have before it drops to the ground? | It has potential energy. |
| How is energy transformed as a swinging boat ride rocks from one side to the other? | Potential energy at the top of the ride is transformed into kinetic energy as it begins to move. |
| Energy transformation occurs when? | One form of energy changes into another. |
| Energy transfer takes place when? | Energy moves from one object to another. |
| Explain the enrgy transformation that must occur for your body to participate in a physical activity, such as playing a sport. | Chemical energy from food transforms into mechanical and thermal energy in the body. Mechanical energy allows motion to happen. |
| Kinetic energy is the energy of? | Motion |
| An object is in motion if? | Its position changes relative to its surroundings. |
