INTRODUCTION
Energy is the ability to do work. It can transform into different types of energy such as potential and Kinetic. Potential and Kinetic energy are two opposite types of energy. Potential is energy of position-when an item is unmoving it has the potential to move. Kinetic energy is energy of motion-as the item is in motion it is converted to kinetic.
The AlleyCats are a special type of bowlers who have the ability to change certain features in their environment. They are able to change the height of the ramp and the weight of the ball in their game. For this lab, the guiding question to this experiment is, “What recommendations will you give the AlleyCats to help them win the bowling championship?”

Observation of the experiment was also collected. The obtained data will be organized on a data table to be analyzed by comparing and contrasting wich experiment would best knock the pins down.
JUSTIFICATION
The experiment proves the claim is: a heavy marble and a high ramp would be the best recommendation for the AlleyCats to win the bowling

So the higher the ruler is the more potential energy it would be. As the marble rolled down the ruler, its kinetic energy (553334.91 J) was also increasing. The reason is because velocity and mass are part of what makes kinetic Energy. The faster the speed and the heavier mass caused more kinetic energy to be present. The potential energy of the marble when it was on the ramp was converted to kinetic energy as it rolled down. So, the more potential energy there is, the more transformed into kinetic energy to help the ball go down the ramp and push the card. This shows that the height of the ramp and the mass of the marble is what determines how well the marble hits the index
Acceleration is another form of energy. When the rollercoaster takes off, the acceleration is the Form of energy that makes the ride goes its certain speed.
Kinetic energy is the energy an object possesses due to its motion. The difference between kinetic energy and potential energy is the kinetic energy is the energy of an object that is already in
I will start with the beginning, which is the ramp and marble. We used a marble that had more mass than the others. We did this to give the marble more potential energy. We set the marble at the top of the ramp, which gave it more potential energy as well, and released the marble. Once dropping it, it's previous potential energy transferred into kenetic energy. After this step came the metal lid. What this step showed was rolling friction and it also pushed it forward. How exactly? Well, when the marble landed, it bounced up, giving it elastic-type energy. It then fell, making it roll across the top of the lid the rest of the
11) When energy was studied earlier in the year, a connection was found between kinetic energy, potential energy, positive work, and negative work. What is the connection?
Conclusion: The results of this lab were found through seemingly simple equations, basing all of your work off of data such as time and distance can become frustrating due to human inaccuracy, but the results show the height and initial velocity of the marble. The results are all reasonable compared with the beginning values that we collected during the lab, and even without calculations fit into the equation. The concept of projectile motion was the basis of this lab, focusing on using kinematic variables and equations to find the
Energy can be transformed but cannot be got rid of. There are lots of forms of energy but chemical energy is the most common form of energy. Energy is a chemical bond that combines atoms or molecules with each other. When the new bond is formed between to atoms the energy helps the formation. The energy that helps is normally heat energy but can also be light or electrical. When the bond is broken atoms get realised as does the energy in the bond.
Energy is a concept.� Most definitions of the word energy fail to provide its exact meaning when applied to scientific matters.� In science the word energy is a concept that expresses two measurable properties, heat and work.� Here is the relationship of energy, heat and work:
Science Buddies of Scientific American completed an experiment on high a basketball bounced on at least two different surfaces. The conductor explained the types of energy, kinetic and potential. They measure a wall up to forty inches high, typing at every eight inches. In the study, the Science Buddies concluded that when a ball is dropped at the same height and way that it bounced higher on a harder surface than a
The purpose of this first climb is to build up potential energy. The concept of
A stopwatch was used to time the duration of falling down the steps. When pushed the stopwatch was started. As the slinky reached the bottom step, the stopwatch was stopped. The experiment was repeated three times with a medium slinky, and three times with a large slinky. The results from the experiment revealed that the slinky traveled down the stairs slower when mass
Using our qualitative observations, we saw that as the height the marble was dropped from increased, the sand and orange powder in the tray reacted more, meaning that it was being hit with more force. By “reacted”, we mean that when the marble hit the sand, some of the sand around the marble sprang up in the air. With our second hypothesis, we dropped 3 different sizes of glass marbles each from a height of 40 cm. From smallest to largest, the average widths were 2.8 cm, 3 cm, and 3.7 cm. and the average depths were 1 cm, 1 cm, and 1.2 cm.
Some of this energy is transferred to the other player, but if they are properly setting the pick that player should not move. Since both players come essentially to rest, we can say that the energy was lost through and inelastic collision.
Energy is the strength and ability that is required in order to perform physical or mental activities. There are different forms of energy these consist of: magnetic, kinetic, heat, light, gravitational, chemical, sound, electrical, elastic and nuclear.
All of these require energy, and energy is what physics is all about. There is kinetic energy, potential energy, conservation of energy, velocity, acceleration, mass, force, and gravity. Energy gives you the ability to do work. Energy is everywhere in nature
There are many forms of energy. The types of energy that can affect the toy car are potential energy, kinetic energy, and work of friction. Potential is the energy of an object due to its position. Kinetic energy is the energy due to motion. Friction plays a part because it shows how much energy is needed for the car to move. All these energies are intertwined in the toy car.
