Types of Energy 1
What is the most prominent type of energy that is at play when a car crashes?
What is Kinetic energy
How do you spell the energy found in nuclear plants?
What is R-A-D-I-A-T-I-O-N
What is a method?
What is a particular procedure for accomplishing or approaching something, especially a systematic or established one
True or false, hypothesis's predict the future?
What is False
What is friction?
What is the force that resists the sliding or rolling of one solid object over another.
What is the definition of Energy?
What is the ability to do work
What type of energy does Elsa produce when singing "Let it go" in hit Disney film "Frozen"?
What is sound
If conducting an experiment around how energy changes with different surfaces and stops at different rates, what surfaces might you need to conduct this?
What is carpet, sandpaper, baking paper, felt, coarse cardboard
What type of variables are needed in a hypothesis?
What is independent and dependent variables
True or false, is friction a force?
What is true
What famous Disney character uses elastic potential energy to fight crime?
What is Elastigirl
What type of potential energy does the Human Torch possess?
What is thermal energy
How can you create a fair test using a method?
What is doing a minimum amount of trials to get an accurate result and following it closely to help annihilate any anomalies.
How is a Hypothesis structured?
What is if, then, because
How does friction contribute to the stopping distance of a toy car when changing on different surfaces?
What is slows down the car at different rates depending on the surface
What type of energy is used at Homer Simpsons work?
What is Nuclear Energy
What type of potential energy does a planet have?
What is gravitational energy
Why is a method important for experiments?
What is it makes the experiment repeatable and helps create a fair test
Based on the question, "how energy within a vehicle change when it stops, and how do different surfaces affect the process of energy arrangement". What are the independent and dependent variable?
What is,
independent = the stopping distance of the toy car.
dependent = the different surfaces the toy car is tested on.
What type of energy does friction create?
What is thermal
What is the type of potential energy that is present when a car is at the top of a ramp?
What is Gravitational
Why is Energy important?
What is it is essential for our existence and the functioning of the universe.
Create a simple method for testing a toy car on different surfaces.
What is, 1. Set up a ramp. 2. Place a surface (like carpet, sandpaper, or plastic) at the bottom of the ramp. 3. Put the toy at the top of the ramp. 4. Let go of the car - don't push it. 5. Watch where it stops. 6. Measure how far it travelled. 7. Record your results in a table.
Create a hypothesis about the following question: How does energy change form when a vehicle stops, and how do different road surfaces affect this process?
What is, IF we change the materials between rough sandpaper, baking paper, felt, coarse cardboard and carpet, THEN the toy car will go further on the baking paper and rough sandpaper, BECAUSE thes have the least friction out of the materials listed, which helps the car glide further. or something like this.
Why is friction important to road safety?
What is, it contributes to how long it takes to stop and how much traction is on the roads
