Description
Investigate How Mass and Height Affect Energy Transfer!
Make teaching potential and kinetic energy engaging with this hands-on Energy Transfer Lab! Students investigate how ball mass and ramp height affect the amount of energy transferred during a collision by measuring how far a plastic cup moves after being struck.
This low-prep investigation helps students discover how gravitational potential energy transforms into kinetic energy while collecting real data, analyzing patterns, and drawing evidence-based conclusions.
Perfect for middle school physical science and fully aligned with NGSS concepts related to energy transfer.
