Which is the best example of potential energy and kinetic energy transforming from one form to another? a.

A swinging pendulum each time it changes directions.

An electric mixer mixing cake batter.

What happens to potential energy when a ball is tossed into the air?

It increases as the ball approaches its highest point.

It decreases as the ball approaches its highest point.

What happens to kinetic energy when a ball is tossed into the air?

It decreases as the ball approaches its highest point.

It increases as the ball approaches its highest point.

When a ball is thrown into the air, its kinetic energy is lowest

all the time. It does not change.

as it begins to fall back to the ground.

When energy transforms

Much of is it lost as thermal energy

It can only transform into ONE other type of energy

Much of it is used up and disappears

Much of it is lost as sound energy

A pendulum ball swings back and forth in an arc. Which describes the energy conversion process as the pendulum moves from left to right?

Potential energy to kinetic energy to potential energy

Kinetic energy to chemical energy to potential energy

Electrical energy to potential energy to kinetic energy

Potential energy to kinetic energy to sound energy

On the coaster to the right, point A and point D are the same height. Assuming the car starts at point A and does not get help, will the car have enough energy to make it to point D?

No, energy of the car is transformed to thermal energy through friction with the track.

Yes, the car gains energy as it falls from A to B.

Yes, none of the cars energy is lost.

No, energy of the car is lost when the car climbs from B to C.
