Test Description: Discuss the differences between potential and kinetic energy.
Instructions: Answer all questions to get your test result.
1) Which of these would have the greatest potential energy?
A
A roller coaster half-way up a hill.
B
A roller coaster at the top of a hill.
C
A roller coaster at the bottom of the hill.
D
A roller coaster half-way down a hill.
2) As a roller coaster goes downhill
A
electrical energy is convereted into potential energy.
B
potential energy is converted into electrical energy.
C
kinetic energy is converted into potential energy.
D

3) James and Juan were at the highest point in the football stadium, dropping water ballons on people below. Many of the ballons did not break, so the boys added more water to the ballons. What impact did adding water have on the ballons' potential ener
A
The gravitational potential energy decreased because the diameter increased.
B
It had no impact; it just made the ballons bigger.
C
The gravitational potential energy increased because the mass increased.
D
The gravitational potential energy remained constant because they did not increase the height.
4) Youre on a thrilling water slide. At what point would you have the most potential energy.
A
In the pool, at the bottom of the slide.
B
At the top of the slide.
C
At the end of the slide.
D
In the middle of a small loop.

A
increases
B
decreases
C
stays the same
D
increases then decreases
