    The document discusses potential and kinetic energy. Potential energy is energy due to an object's position or state, such as a raised object, while kinetic energy is energy due to an object's motion. It provides formulas for calculating potential energy (PE=mgh) and kinetic energy (KE=1/2mv^2). It also gives examples of calculating the potential energy of a cart raised to a height and the kinetic energy of objects with a given mass and speed.

    Identify if the photo shown is POTENTIAL ENERGY or KINETIC ENERGY.

    Energy – capacity to do work


    Kinetic Energy – energy at motion
    Potential Energy – energy at rest

    ______________________ ______________________

    Formula:
    ______________________ ______________________  Kinetic Energy KE = 1/2mv2

     Potential Energy PE = mgh

    Solve for POTENTIAL ENERGY Compute for KE:


    A cart is loaded with a brick and pulled at constant speed along an KE = 1/2mv2
    inclined plane to the height of a seat-top. If the mass of the loaded A 1000 kg car has a velocity of 17 m/s. What is the car’s kinetic energy?
    cart is 3.0 kg and the height of the seat top is 0.45 meters, then what is (Unit is J or Joules)
    the potential energy of the loaded cart at the height of the seat-top?
    Compute for PE:
    PE = mgh
    If a 1 kg book is lifted 0.5m above the table, what would the potential energy be?
    (Unit is J or Joules)
    Solve for KINETIC ENERGY
    Determine the kinetic energy of a 625-kg roller coaster car that is
    moving with a speed of 18.3 m/s.  Power – rate of doing work or the rate of using energy

    P = energy
    time
