Energy Unit 1
Performance Expectations
PS3-2 – Develop a model to describe what happens to the amount of potential energy stored in the system when the distance between interacting objects changes
PS3-5 – Construct, Use, and Present arguments to support the claim that when the kinetic energy of an object changes, energy has been transferred to or from the objects
Big Question: How does energy transfer through various systems in the natural world?
Learning Targets
1) Describe and identify examples of potential and kinetic energy.
2) Use evidence to describe the relationship between potential and kinetic energy.
3) Demonstrate how the amount of potential energy changes as the distance between 2 objects changes (GPE, EPE, MPE)
4) Describe how energy transforms from one type of energy to another.
5) Support the claim that when the kinetic energy of an object changes, energy is transferred to or from the object.

After viewing this video, write a paragraph of at least 3-5 sentences for each prompt (2 paragraphs total):
2) 2. Identify at least two examples of energy transforming from one form to another (i.e. mechanical energy transforms to sound energy). Be specific in explaining what you observed and why you believe it to be this type of energy transformation. |
