U.07 Kinetic & Potential Energy

Day 16 - Worksheet 7C: Review of Potential & Kinetic Energy

Be sure to turn in your EDP report before tomorrow's exam over potential and kinetic energy. Speaking of which, we need to review....

To prepare for tomorrow's exam, complete Worksheet C, which will review the basic calculations involved with potential and kinetic energy. The counterweight of your trebuchet represents the potential energy of your trebuchet and the moving projectile represents the kinetic energy of your trebuchet.

kinetic energy
energy of motion
potential energy
gravitational potential energy is the energy represented by mass due to its height above a surface under force of gravity
