Forms of Energy Quiz

What happens to the ball when the star kicker kicks it, as described in the text?

• It gains potential energy because of its position

• It transfers kinetic energy from the foot to the ball

• It absorbs thermal energy from the environment

What role do gravity, friction, and air resistance play in a kickball game?

• They slow down the ball and make it harder to play.

• They have no significant impact on the game.

• They help players roll, catch, and kick the ball.

• They increase the ball's kinetic energy.

What is a force?

• a push or pull in a specific direction

• energy in a moving object

• the mass of a kickball player

The text contrasts potential and kinetic energy. How does potential energy differ from kinetic energy?

• Potential energy is stored in an object based on its position while kinetic energy is the energy an object has due to its motion.

• Potential energy is the position on a kickball team that rolls the ball to the kicker while kinetic energy is the person kicking the ball.

What conclusion can you draw from this evidence?

• The ball has more kinetic energy when it is farther from the ground.

• The ball has more kinetic energy when it is closer to the ground.

• The ball transfers its energy to the air around it as it goes up.

What is the main idea of this text?

• When a player catches a ball mid-bounce, the kinetic energy from the ball goes into their hands.

• When a pitcher pulls their arm back and then swings it forward to roll a ball, they are exerting a force on the ball.

• In a game of kickball, different forces help energy transform and transfer from one person or object to another.
