Kinetic energy
A 0.09 kg marble is up on a roller coaster .84 m in the air. What is the marbles potential energy?
0.74 J
If a marble has 0.3 J of potential energy at the top of ramp, what is its kinetic energy at the bottom if you neglect air resistance?
0.3 J
What is the equation for work?
Work equals Force times Distance
Potential Energy
A 3 kg squirrel is running out of Christmas tree at 6.8 m/s. What is its kinetic energy?

A model rocket falls out of the sky where it had 400 J of potential energy at its highest point. If it has 250 J of kinetic energy at the bottom, what happened to the 150 J of energy not accounted for?
It became thermal energy
If someone does 600 J of work on a 40 kg object, how far did they move?

2083.3 W
Why can a roller coaster never go higher than the first hill it drops down?
Because it can never gain more energy that it had at the beginning
If a person lifts a 200 lbs bar and then sets it back on the rack where it came from, how much work have they done?
0 J
