Hello, bloggers today in bio we are learning about 8 types of energy the 8 energy is kinetic, heat, chemical potential, light, gravitational, elastic potential, electrical, and sound energy is passed on from one type to another.
Kinetic-energy which the body possesses by virtue of being in motion
Heat-temperature giving energy hot=lots cold=not a lot
Chemical potential-food and fuel
Light-Sound waves/light waves
Gravitational-effect of gravity pushing down
Elastic potential- something that stretches to load up energy
Electrical- anything involving power
Sound- waves can hear eg voice, vibration
For our expirment we had made marshmallow cannons in order to make it you need to have plastic cup and a ballon. First step is to cut a hole in the bottom of the cup once you have done that cup half way on a ballon when done you can procced to put the ballon on the cup.
What happen is we put the marshmallow in it a we pulled the ballon back which is called elastic energy when realse you have just realsed kinetic energy and when its in the air it is called gravitantion. That is what/happended when making the marsh mallow cannon hope you enjoy the blog post bye.
Hi Dani,
ReplyDeleteGreat work! I can tell that you have looked up the definitions you are unsure of which is awesome. You started explaining the transformations that occurred with the marshmallow, was it only those 3 (kinetic, elastic, gravitational)?
Please add your slide animation of the Marshmallows motion :)
