3. How can you make the Ping
Pong ball bounce higher?
With your partner, write down how you
tried to make it go higher and if it worked
or not.
4. Try dropping the Ping Pong ball on
top of the Golf ball.
Write down what you observe
5. What is Energy Transfer?
Energy transfer is another word for
Conservation of Energy. This means that
energy can never be created or
destroyed, so it has to go somewhere.
When the energy goes from the golf ball
to the ping pong ball, it is being
transferred. This makes the ping pong ball
go higher in the air, but the golf ball goes
lower because it lost its energy.
6. With your group, think of 3 different
examples of transfers in energy. Each
person should write down the
examples and explain how the energy
is transferred for each example.
Do not use the example we did in
class.
7. Time to Share
Give one example your group came up
with and explain it.
What did you learn about energy today?
