How do molecules at warm temperatures differ from molecules at cool temperatures?
a. At warm temperatures, molecules move around more, so they have more TE & KE
b. At warm temperatures, molecules grow in size
c. At warm temperatures, molecules lose KE but gain TE
d. At warm temperatures, molecules loose both KE & TE

On a hot summer day, we like to drink ice cold water. When holding the glass in your hand, the water begins to warm up quickly due to energy transfer.
Use an arrow to show which direction the energy transfers (from the water to the hand or the hand to the water).
Select all the factors that influence the amount of elastic energy an object has.
Mass
Stretching
Compression
Hardness

Elastic
Chemical
Which type of energy conversion is involved when the ball leaves the ground?
Kinetic to gravitational
Gravitational to kinetic
Elastic to kinetic
Kinetic to elastic
