Give an example of transferring energy in baseball.
What is when the bat hits the ball? Some of the energy from the bat will transfer to the ball causing it to soar through the air.

Define conserved.
What is energy cannot be created or destroyed?
A battery.
What is stored energy?
A bowling ball or a basketball? How do you know?
What is a bowling ball? The bowling ball is heavier so it has more stored energy.
Give an example of transferring energy in bowling.
