What happens when a ball is dropped?
PE decreases and KE decreases
PE increases and KE decreases
PE decreases and KE increases
PE increases and KE increases
Roller coasters slow down when going up because . . .
Someone stops it
Kinetic energy gets converted to Potential energy as you are gaining more height.
Kinetic energy increases because more height at the top.
Velocity is increasing thus roller coaster slows down
What is the formula for KE?
KE = 21v2
KE = 21mv2
KE = 21m2v
What is the formula for Potential energy?
PE = mg
PE = mh
PE = mgv
PE = mgh
