1.
How do we calculate kinetic
energy?
2.
What are the units for:
•
Mass
•
Energy
•
Speed
3. If a car was travelling at a speed
of 50m/s and it had a mass of 300kg,
what would it’s kinetic energy store
be?
Do now activity:
GOOD PROGRESS:
State
the kinetic energy and elastic potential energy
calculations
To be able to use apply
the kinetic energy and elastic
potential energy calculations to a problem
OUTSTANDING PROGRESS:
To be
able to rearrange and apply both kinetic energy and
elastic potential energy calculations to a problem

:
1. If a spring had a spring constant of 25N/m and it
was extended by 56m, what is the elastic potential
energy store of the spring?
2. If an elastic band has a spring constant of 4N/m
and it was extended by 20m, what is the elastic
potential energy store of the elastic band?
Show your
working!!!
Task: Have a go at these questions in silence, show
your work for each question:
½ x 20Nm x 0.05m
2
= 0.025J
½ x 525Nm x 0.15m
2
= 5.9J
20J / 0.1

Look at the following object, in each case the object
has had it’s shape changed.
a) Out of the objects above, which one/s do you think
are storing elastic potential energy? Explain your
answer.
