Transcript Day 3 Hot Wheels conclusions

Slide 1

Student Objective
• Explain how speed of an object relates to the
energy of that object.
• To identify the 2 different forms of energy

Warm Up

WHY did the higher ramp
make the car go
farther?

1

Lab Conclusions:
Is there a pattern of ramp height and
distance traveled?
• Does double, triple or quadruple the ramp height
mean double, triple & quadruple the distance?
More or less than that??
• Is there a pattern in the amount of increase as
the ramp got higher??
Question:
Based on your lab data, how far do you predict your groups’
car will travel using 8 books?
Hypothesis: Add to bottom of lab worksheet

Procedure:
1. Add a row to your data table for 8 books (above or
below existing table)

2. Start car at top of ramp & let go (do NOT push).
Record distance traveled from end of ramp.
3. Repeat 2 more times & record distances.
4. Calculate average distance for the 3 trials.

Potential Energy – The stored energy of an
object when it is not moving.
Kinetic Energy – energy of an object in
motion
• On your lab diagram, label where potential &
kinetic energy would be.
• Use your new vocabulary to explain why the cars
went farther when started at a greater height?
