Lesson Check: Kinetic Energy

10) Students used this setup to investigate the connection between kinetic energy and speed.

The students rolled the ball down the ramp from different heights. The cup at the bottom of
the ramp caught the ball, and it moved a distance depending upon the ball’s speed. After
each trial, the students calculated the ball’s speed and measured the distance the cup moved.
The graph shows the students’ results.

Describe the relationship between kinetic energy and the speed of the ball. Be sure to use
evidence from the investigation to support your answer.

11) Braking distance is the distance a car travels from the time a person applies the brakes to
when the car comes to a complete stop. The graph shows the relationship between the speed
of a car and the distance the car travels before it stops.

Based on the graph, describe the relationship between the car’s braking distance and kinetic
energy. Be sure to use evidence from the graph to support your response.
