Subtract its potential energy from its kinetic energy.

Imagine Zoe and Daniel are on a quest to harness the power of nature! Why is moving water their secret weapon for generating electricity?

because energy can be converted from one form to another.

because water can be converted into energy.

because potential energy can be converted into kinetic energy.

because chemical energy can be converted into electrical energy.

Imagine Benjamin and Evelyn are having a race to slide their books across the table. What type of energy conversion happens during this fun activity?

mechanical energy into thermal energy.

thermal energy into chemical energy.

chemical energy into nuclear energy.

electrical energy into sound energy.

electrical --> mechanical --> thermal

mechanical --> electrical --> chemical

During a science class, Nora and Maya are discussing the magical world of energy transformations. Nora asks, "What does the law of conservation of energy say happens when one form of energy is transformed into another?"

no energy is destroyed or lost in the process.

energy is destroyed in the process.

energy is created in the process.

some amount of energy cannot be accounted for.

Imagine Anika, Isla, and Harper are on a thrilling roller coaster ride! Can you guess where their car has the maximum potential energy and where it zooms with the maximum kinetic energy?

At the top of the first hill; at the bottom of the first drop

At the highest point of the track; at the lowest point of the track

At the bottom of the first drop; at the top of the first hill

At the lowest point of the track; at the highest point of the track

Imagine Luna and Jackson are having a heat transfer race. In which scenarios does heat transfer occur?

only from warm objects to colder ones.

when warm objects stop being warm.

only from cold objects to warmer ones.

Imagine Ava and Elijah are having a heated debate about why heat is the right term to use in these scenarios. Can you help them figure it out?

They show that heat flows from something warmer to something cooler.

They show that when objects are touching, they are the same temperature.

They indicate that heat is created to raise the temperature of something.

They indicate that the kinetic energy of the particles decreases when something is heated.

Imagine Charlotte and Kai are having a friendly competition to see who can balance a spoon on their nose the longest. But wait! Before they start, they need to make sure their spoons are at the same temperature. What is this state called when their spoons reach a common temperature?

When two objects reach a common temperature

When two objects are at rest at the same time

When objects reach boiling point

After Arjun's exciting experiment with a steaming mug of hot chocolate, what could he conclude about the magical journey of heat when it's added or removed from an object?

Arrow B shows the direction heat flowed because the temperature of the hot chocolate changed as heat was absorbed by his hand.

Arrow A shows the direction heat flowed because the temperature of his hand increased as heat was absorbed by his hand.

Arrow A shows the direction heat flowed because the temperature of his hand increased as heat was released from his hand.

Arrow B shows the direction heat flowed because the temperature of the hot chocolate changed as heat was absorbed by the mug.
