    predict that the higher I drop the ball from the higher it will rebound up‚ because it will have more gravitational potential energy the higher dropped from. As it is dropped the ball will have kinetic energy‚ and then when it hits the ground changes to heat and sound energy‚ and kinetic as it rebounds back up. The higher up the ball is dropped from the more gravitational potential‚ more kinetic energy on the way down and therefore more sound heat and kinetic energy when hitting the ground. The ball

    order for the body to perform the tasks it is told to perform. The brain is responsible for controlling both voluntary and involuntary actions and coordinates and controls other organs in the body. The brain can do this by the use of postsynaptic potentials‚ synaptic transmission‚ and receptors that are responsible for producing and regulating specific behaviors. There are also six primary neurotransmitters that play a large role in how an individual behaves and how their brain functions. The combination

    Aim To determine whether the height at which a marble is dropped affect the size of the crater. Scientific knowledge Impact craters are geologic structures formed when a large meteorite‚ asteroid or comet smashes in to a planet or a satellite. Meteorites are small rocks in space that hit the earth’s atmosphere at a high velocity. Throughout their history they have heavily bombarded all the inner bodies in our solar system. In this experiment we will use marbles as our meteorites‚ these will be

    knowledge that physics offers us? The answer is no. Roller coasters are driven by physics; it mobilizes and gives its riders amusement through forces such as inertia‚ gravitation‚ and centripetal forces and utilizes different types of energies such as potential and kinetic energy. Physics is what makes roller coasters safe and effective. It is not only the high speed of the trains of a roller coaster that makes the ride so thrilling but the acceleration of the train and the occasional feeling of weightlessness

    2014). Gravitational potential energy (Egp) is a concept from the law of gravity. As an object is positioned with a gravitational field‚ the object can store energy which is called gravitational potential energy (Physicsclassroom.com‚ 2014). As the object begins movement or work the energy transfers into kinetic energy. Kinetic energy (Ekr) is an expression of energy in motion. When an object is in the act of work or movement the energy becomes active and transfers from potential into kinetic (Hyperphysics
