Skills Checklist/Study Guide for Energy
State Standards:
0607.10.1 Distinguish among gravitational potential energy, elastic potential energy, and chemical
potential energy
0607.10.2 Interpret the relationship between potential and kinetic energy.
0607.10.3 Recognize that energy can be transformed from one type to another
0607.10.4 Explain the Law of Conservation of Energy using data from a variety of energy
transformations.
Skills:
________/__________ Determine which objects have more or less thermal energy.
(example, and iceberg has more thermal energy than a cup of hot chocolate.)
________/__________ Describe the connection between work and energy.
________/__________ Identify the two factors that determine an object’s gravitational
potential energy.
________/__________Differentiate between two objects and identify the one with
greater gravitational potential energy.
________/__________ Describe how kinetic and potential energy make up mechanical
energy.
________/__________ Determine from pictured choices examples of objects with
elastic potential energy.
________/__________ Determine from pictured choices examples of objects with
chemical potential energy. (The examples typically given are batteries and food. See if
you can find other examples)
________/__________ Describe energy conversions that take place in various
examples. (A plant making its own food; a basketball bouncing; a car being driven)
________/__________ Explain what “energy efficient” means
________/__________ Explain the Law of Conservation of energy by using an example.
