REVIEW: ENERGY QUIZ
What is Energy?
Energy: The ability to do work or cause
change.
What is Potential Energy?
Potential Energy is energy that is
stored or held in readiness.
What is Kinetic Energy?
Kinetic Energy is the energy of motion.
What is the Law of Conservation of Energy?
Law of Conservation of Energy; When one
form of energy is converted to another, no
energy is destroyed in the process.

Label A through E as
either potential or
kinetic energy.
Review for Quiz:
At which letter does the cannon ball have the
most potential energy? Why?
As the cannon ball rises from A to C it slows
down. Explain why this is true.
The Law of Conservation of Energy states
that energy can neither be created nor
destroyed; rather, it transforms from one
form to another.
Explain how the picture supports this
statement.

What is an object’s kinetic energy is based on?
Kinetic energy is based on mass and
speed.
What is an object’s potential energy is based
on?
Potential energy is based on mass and
height above the ground.
An increase in potential energy will result in a
decrease in kinetic energy.
