What are the 3 types potential energy we discussed in class?

Chemical potential energy

Elastic potential energy

Gravitational potential energy

200

The law that states that energy cannot be created or destroyed but is simply transferred from one object to another

The law of conservation of energy.

300

True or False: The human wave seen at stadiums fits the scientific definition of a wave. Explain your answer.

True. Matter doesn't move from one location to another but energy is transferred.

300

What are the 2 components of a force?

How are forces measured?

The two components are strength and direction.

Forces are measured in newtons.

300

Set, floater, and wipe are terms used in which team sport?

Volleyball

300

What are 2 factors that potential energy depends on?

Mass and Height

300

A car is traveling at 50 miles/hour on a straight road. Is the car accelerating? Explain.

The car is not accelerating because the speed and direction of motion do not change.

400

Based on your understanding of waves, are you able to hear sound in space? Explain your reasoning.

No. Sound waves are a mechanical wave which require matter in which to travel. Space does not have matter to allow it to travel through.
