Potential and Kinetic Energy Workbook for middle school

9 page print and go workbook covering kinetic and potential energy definitions, basic calculations and advanced calculations as well as the law of conservation of energy. Perfect for middle school.

 

Includes:

  • What are kinetic and potential energy and how are they calculated
  • Basic calculations such as:
    • What is the kinetic energy of a 30 kg lion moving at 6 m/s?
    • How much gravitational potential energy is in a 45 kg diver standing on the diving board 3 m above the pool?
  • Advanced calculations such as:
    • A 30 lb dog ran into you with 135 J of energy. How fast was it going?
    • How high does a 40 kg child have to bounce on a trampoline to reach 1176 in gravitational potential energy?
    • A rollercoaster car has a mass of 1300 kg. If the rollercoaster designer wants to achieve 19.8 m/s speeds at the bottom of the hill, how high must the hill be?
