Energy
What is the ability to do work?
Energy
What is the movement of energy from one place to another?
Energy Transfer
"The dominoes fall due to a tiny push." What is the effect?
The dominoes fall.
What happens when an object comes in contact with another object?
What is an object’s location?
Position
What is the stored energy in an object?
Potential Energy
When electrical energy transfers from a battery to a lightbulb, the electrical energy changes to _____ energy.
"The first domino falls as a result of potential energy." What is the cause?
“Kennedy balances a cue stick on the pool table. She hits the cue ball. The cue ball moves toward the group of balls.”
What happens before the collision?
The cue ball has kinetic energy and moves toward the other balls.
What is a change in an object’s position?
Motion
What is the energy that an object has due to its motion?
Kinetic Energy
When electrical energy transfers from a drone battery to the drone motor, the electrical energy changes into what two kinds of energy?
Sound and light
"The wagon has potential energy because it is at the top of a hill." What is the cause?
It is at the top of a hill.
“Kennedy balances a cue stick on the pool table. She hits the cue ball. The cue ball moves toward the group of balls.”
What happens during the collision?
The cue ball transfers kinetic energy to the other balls.
What is the measurement of how fast an object’s position changes in any given amount of time?
Speed
A soccer player kicks the ball into the goal. Which kind of energy is this?
Kinetic
Two bowling balls that are the same weight roll down an alley. The first speeds past the second one. Which one has more kinetic energy?
The first one
"Since enough energy moves from domino to domino, the dominoes keep falling." What is the effect?
Dominoes keep falling.
“Kennedy balances a cue stick on the pool table. She hits the cue ball. The cue ball moves toward the group of balls.”
What happens after the collision?
The cue ball moves in a different direction than it was moving before.
Speed provides an object __________ kinetic energy.

A book balances on the edge of a table, but is not in motion. Which kind of energy is this?
Potential
A car and a train travel at the same rate of speed. Which one has more kinetic energy?
Train
"I lifted the domino and stood it upright, therefore some potential energy is stored in the domino." What is the cause?
I lifted the domino and stood it upright.
Alec kicks the football. There is a collision between Alec’s foot and the football. How is energy transferred during the collision?
The hard kick transfers kinetic energy to the ball.
Weight provides an object __________ kinetic energy.
