Batteries gasoline natural gas food water towers a wound up alarm clock a thermos flask with hot water and even pooh are all stores of energy.
Videos of transferring energy such as marbles hitting each other.
In this lesson students use marbles of various sizes to see how collisions can transfer energy from one object to another.
Conservation of momentum using marbles just like many other forces in nature such as energy momentum is conserved.
Power on the other hand is the rate at which energy is used or the amount of energy expended for a given unit of time.
While this may be hard for students to believe at first students can prove that.
Electric power is the rate at which electrical energy is converted to or from another form of energy such as.
If ball one had 10 joules of energy and it hit ball two in an elastic collision ball two would swing away with 10 joules.
As a continuation of the theme of potential and kinetic energy this lesson introduces the concepts of momentum elastic and inelastic collisions.
Students can use the associated activities to explore these concepts by bouncing assorted balls on different surfaces and calculating the.
These charged objects can exert forces on each other.
Energy can also be stored in many other ways.

Electrical energy some objects carry electrical charges and create electric fields.
The balls in a newton s cradle hit each other in a series of elastic collisions transferring the energy of ball one.
Use two balls to transfer kinetic energy from the the big ball to the smaller one and see what happens.
Devices such as lamps and heaters may be involved or processes such as combustion.
