An object falling from a certain height

X

Condition of ball Transformation in the forms of energy for the load between
Gravitational potential energy (P.E.) and kinetic energy (K.E.)
At position X Gravitational P.E. = maximum (ball at maximum height)
K.E. = zero (Ball is stationary, speed=0)

From position X to Y Gravitational P.E. = decreasing (height of ball decreasing)

K.E. = increasing (Speed of ball increasing)

At position Y Gravitational P.E. = zero (Ball is on the ground)

K.E. = zero (speed is maximum before hitting on the ground)
Lim Jia Yee (11) 3A4
Activity 7.3 ( Toys with spring)

When the potential energy is

'released', it is converted to the
energy of motion, also known
as kinetic energy. This is the
energy you see when the toy car
is moving forward after released.

Elastic potential energy

stored in the spring=kinetic
energy of the dart
