The height of a ramp affects the speed of a ball rolling down it in terms of energy because:

Higher ramps increase potential energy, leading to higher speed.

Lower ramps increase potential energy, leading to higher speed.

Height does not affect the speed of the ball.

The speed of the ball is only affected by its mass.

When you bowl a strike, what happens to the mechanical energy in the bowling ball? Describe in terms of ENERGY TRANSFER.

The mechanical energy is partially transferred to the pins and partially lost as heat and sound.

The mechanical energy is completely transferred to the pins.

The mechanical energy remains in the ball and is not transferred.

The mechanical energy is converted entirely into sound energy.

Chemical potential energy in the body transforms into mechanical energy of the arm. Mechanical energy of the arm transfers to the golf club & the mechanical energy of the golf club transfers to the golf ball.

Chemical potential energy in the body transfers directly to the golf ball without any transformation.

Mechanical energy of the arm transforms into thermal energy before reaching the golf club.

The energy in the golf ball is transformed into chemical energy upon impact

Label each of the following as either an Energy Transfer or an Energy Transformation and be sure to include the forms of energy involved: 15. Frying eggs

Mechanical energy of the pan transfers to the egg

Label each of the following as either an Energy Transfer or an Energy Transformation and be sure to include the forms of energy involved: 16. Making Ice (in the freezer)

Thermal energy is transferred from the warmer water to the cool air of the freezer. Electrical energy transforms into mechanical energy (spinning fan).

Thermal energy is transformed into chemical energy as the water freezes.

Electrical energy is transferred directly into the water to freeze it.

Mechanical energy is transformed into thermal energy to cool the water.

Label each of the following as either an Energy Transfer or an Energy Transformation and be sure to include the forms of energy involved: 17. Solar panels

Radiant energy is transformed into electrical energy

Radiant energy is transferred to thermal energy

Electrical energy is transformed into mechanical energy

Chemical energy is transferred to electrical energy

Label each of the following as either an Energy Transfer or an Energy Transformation and be sure to include the forms of energy involved: 18. Lighting a match

Chemical potential energy transforms into thermal & radiant energy

Chemical potential energy transfers to kinetic energy

Thermal energy transforms into chemical energy

Radiant energy transfers to chemical potential energy

Label each of the following as either an Energy Transfer or an Energy Transformation and be sure to include the forms of energy involved: 19. Shooting a bow and arrow

Elastic potential energy transforms into mechanical energy (string moving). The mechanical energy of the bow transfers to the arrow making the arrow move.

Elastic potential energy remains constant, and no energy is transferred to the arrow.

Mechanical energy transforms into thermal energy, causing the arrow to heat up.

Chemical energy in the bowstring transforms into light energy as the arrow is released.

How is making waffles an example of both energy transfer and an energy transformation? Explain.

Making waffles involves converting electrical energy into heat energy, which cooks the batter.

Making waffles involves converting mechanical energy into sound energy, which is heard during cooking.

Making waffles involves converting chemical energy into light energy, which is seen during cooking.

Making waffles involves converting kinetic energy into potential energy, which is stored in the batter.

What is the only force that can slow down the rate of an object in free fall? Why would a feather fall more slowly than a pebble?

Air resistance is the only force that can slow down the rate of an object in free fall. A feather falls more slowly than a pebble because it experiences greater air resistance due to its shape and lower mass.

Gravity is the only force that can slow down the rate of an object in free fall. A feather falls more slowly than a pebble because it is lighter.

Friction is the only force that can slow down the rate of an object in free fall. A feather falls more slowly than a pebble because it has a rough surface.

Magnetic force is the only force that can slow down the rate of an object in free fall. A feather falls more slowly than a pebble because it is non-magnetic.

Why did the potential energy of the box increase?

The box was moved to a higher position.

The box produced potential energy.
