Potential & Kinetic Energy

Bundle 5 How can objects interact at a distance?

MS-PS3-2 Evidence Statement
Develop a model to describe that when the arrangement of objects interacting at a distance changes, different amounts of potential energy are stored in the system
Packet
[Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on relative amounts of potential energy, not on calculations of potential energy. Examples of objects within systems interacting at varying distances could include: the Earth and either a roller coaster cart at varying positions on a hill or objects at varying heights on shelves, changing the direction/orientation of a magnet, and a balloon with static electrical charge being brought closer to a classmate’s hair. Examples of models could include representations, diagrams, pictures, and written descriptions of systems.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment is limited to two objects and electric, magnetic, and gravitational interactions.] The performance expectation above was developed using the following elements from the NRC document

The concept that, when two objects interact, each one exerts a force on the other that can cause energy to be transferred to or from the object (PS3.C as in MS-PS3-2) can connect to the idea that forces that act at a distance (electric and magnetic) can be explained by fields that extend through space (PS2.B as in MS-PS2-5). These ideas also connect to the concept that electric and magnetic (electromagnetic) forces can be attractive or repulsive, and their sizes depend on the magnitudes of the charges, currents, or magnetic strengths involved and on the distances between the interacting objects (PS2.B as in MS-PS2-3).

Bundle 4 What happens when objects collide?

MS-PS3-1 Evidence Statement
Construct and interpret graphical displays of data to describe the relationships of kinetic energy to the mass of an object and to the speed of an object.
Packet
[Clarification Statement: Emphasis is on descriptive relationships between kinetic energy and mass separately from kinetic energy and speed. Examples could include riding a bicycle at different speeds, rolling different sizes of rocks downhill, and getting hit by a wiffle ball versus a tennis ball.]

MS-PS3-5 Evidence Statement
Construct, use, and present arguments to support the claim that when the kinetic energy of an object changes, energy is transferred to or from the object.
Packet
[Clarification Statement: Examples of empirical evidence used in arguments could include an inventory or other representation of the energy before and after the transfer in the form of temperature changes or motion of object.] [Assessment Boundary: Assessment does not include calculations of energy.]

Motion energy is properly called kinetic energy; it is proportional to the mass of the moving object and grows with the square of its speed (PS3.A as in MS-PS3-1). This idea can be connected to the concept that when the motion energy of an object changes, there is inevitably some other change in energy at the same time (PS3.B as in MS-PS3-5). The concept of motion also connects to the idea that the motion of an object is determined by the sum of the forces acting on it; if the total force on the object is not zero, its motion will change (PS2.A as in MS-PS2-2). The idea of forces connects to the concept that for any pair of interacting objects, the force exerted by the first object on the second object is equal in strength to the force that the second object exerts on the first, but in the opposite direction (PS2.A as in MS-PS2-1).

Essential Vocabulary & Concepts

Picture	Core Knowledge or Concept
	Energy Energy is the ability to do work or cause a change. The unit of energy is the Joule.
	Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. It depends on mass and velocity. (i.e. a book falling)
	Potential energy is energy that is stored and ready to be released. (i.e. a book on a table ready to fall) Springs store elastic potential energy Height stores gravitational potential energy. Potential Energy = Weight * Height (weight is in newtons, height in meters.) formula for gravity (Earth's = 9.8 m/s²)
	Forms of energy and their sources mechanical (motion): wind, water, machines, animals thermal (heat): buring, the sun, electric heaters, chemical reactions chemical (molecular bonds): chemical reactions, molecules electrical (electrons): lightning, chemical reactions, solar cells, generators electromagnetic(light, radio waves, x-rays, etc.): the sun, lights, heaters nuclear (radiation). atoms breaking down or being made
	Work is the transfer of energy between objects. (Like a force that makes an object move.) work = force * distance (force is in newtons, distance in meters.) The unit of work is the Joule.
	Energy conversion occurs when one type (form) of energy is changed into another. (i.e. electricity into sound, motion into heat, etc.)
	The law of conservation of energy states that energy can neither be created nor destroyed. Einstein's theory e=mc² says that energy (e) can be converted to matter (m) and vice versa (and back again).
	Scientist Enrico Fermi, the father of American Nuclear Physics at the University of Chicago. His work is continued in the Manhattan project, Argonne National Labs, and the Fermilab Accelerator in Batavia.
	Technology Lithium Ion Battery Technology: The new hot industry in Michigan is trying to turn cell phone and computer battery technology into a practical electric car.
