What is Energy?• Energy is the ability to do
Work or cause a change–Measured in Joules, like Work

Kinetic Energy
• Kinetic Energy is the energy of motion
• All moving objects have Kinetic Energy (KE)
• What determines an object’s KE?– Mass & Velocity
determine the KE of an object.

Potential Energy
• Potential Energy (PE) is stored energy– It has the potential or
“possibility” to do work
• Gravitational PE is energy that depends on height
• Elastic PE is for objects that can be stretched.
