height and mass
If a skater was at the top of a hill but not moving what kind of energy would she have?
Potential energy
If a skater was zooming down a hill what kind of energy would she have?
Kinetic energy.
If a bouncy ball is held really high and is gathering a lot of potential energy, will it bounce high or low?
Really high.
If a ball was bouncing up and down would it keep bouncing forever or would it eventually run out of kinetic energy?
It would eventually run out of kinetic energy.
