100

Energy in motion, measured in Joules and basic equation is=½ m v2

Kinetic Energy



100

is a possible explanation for observations, or an educated guess about what you think will happen in your experiment.

Hypothesis

100

Kinetic Energy 

½ *m*v2

100

Unit of measurement for distance & displacement

Meter(m)

100

is a push or pull measured in Newtons(N)

Force

200

Energy that is stored, measured in Joules and basic equation is=m*9.8*h=mgh.

Potential Energy

200

the location of an object at any given time,

Position

200

Potential Energy

=m*9.8*h=mgh.

200

Unit of measurement for mass

Kilogram (kg)

200

is the total length of the path traveled between two positions. Measured in meters (m)

Distance

300

is the force over a given distance.

w=F*d-Measured in Joules(J)

Work

300

the difference between a measured value and its true value usually measured as a percent.

Experimental Error

300

Work

W=F*d

300

Unit of measurement for Energy

Joules (J)

300

The shortest distance between two points. This is a vector and units of measurement are meters (m)

Displacement

400

The ability to do work

Energy

400

Stastical data that shows the error in a result.

Residuals

400

Force of gravity

F=m*g

400

Unit of measurement for Force

Newton (N)

400

Speed(distance over time) with direction usually measured in meters per second.(m/s)

Velocity

500

A ball with a mass of 2kg rolls from rest from the top of a ramp that is 10 meters tall and 15 meters long. Determine the work done to the ball as it rolls to the bottom of the ramp.

F=m*g= 2*10=20N

W=F*d=20*15=300J

500

stastical data that shows how well the data fit the regression model.

Displacement/Time     =d/s

500

Unit of measurement for velocity or speed

meters per second (m/s)
