ENERGIZE STATION LETTER 1 KINETIC VS POTENTIAL ENERGY 2 Go to the stations marked Energize to determine your lock code. Save the best for last! Put your last in the table to solve the puzzle. 3 4 5
ENERGIZE - STATION #1 Topsy Turvy Leave one top lay and spin the others. Which has more Kinetic Energy? A. More kinetic energy is found in the spinning tops. B. More kinetic energy is found in the stationary top. C. All the tops have the same kinetic energy. ENERGIZE - STATION #2 Band Width Leave one rubber band to play by itself; have the other control a book. Put the 2nd rubber band on the long axis of the book. Which rubber band has more Potential Energy? A. The rubber band who got to stay and chill has more potential than the busy rubber band. B. More potential energy is found in the rubber band that controls the book. C. All the rubber bands have the same amount of potential energy.
ENERGIZE - STATION #3 Books a Million Place 2 books in a stack and 5 books in another stack. Which stack has more Kinetic Energy? A. The short stack has more kinetic energy. B. The taller stack has more kinetic energy than the short stack. C. The amount of kinetic energy in each stack is the same. ENERGIZE - STATION #4 Tower Watch Look over the tower and see what you think. How will the energy differ? Better watch it, don t blink. Put a marble in the toy tower and watch it move. What happens to the total amount of energy in the system? A. As the marble moves, the energy will change from kinetic to potential. B. As the marble moves, total potential energy will become total kinetic energy. C. As the marble moves, the total energy will remain the same. D. As the marble moves, the total energy will become zero.
ENERGIZE - STATION #5 Block It Place one block on its short side and another on its long side. Observe their energy. Which block has more Potential Energy? A. More potential energy is seen in the block placed on its short end. B. More potential energy is found in the block placed on its long side. C. The blocks have the same potential energy regardless of their position. D. The blocks do not have any potential energy.
