What factors influence the amount of energy in a system? (7) by Amanda Benson-Richter https://padlet.com/amanda_bensonrichter/n23ze9cdum9 With your groups, determine a claim that answers the question above. Then, use evidence from the mini stations, energy skate park, etc., to identify evidence that supports your claim. Lastly, use the Physics Resources (Google Site) to provide reasoning (explain WHY) your evidence proves your claim. en-us 2018-10-10 13:09:30 UTC 2018-10-10 17:54:39 UTC hello@padlet.com Steffan, Ellie, Alan, and Gwen steffanand8177 https://padlet.com/amanda_bensonrichter/n23ze9cdum9/wish/291381661 There are a multiple factors that influence the amont of energy in a system, including mass, height of the object, and the terrian.]]> 2018-10-10 17:31:00 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_bensonrichter/n23ze9cdum9/wish/291381661 Alifya, David, Gautham https://padlet.com/amanda_bensonrichter/n23ze9cdum9/wish/291381878 The two factors are mass and height]]> 2018-10-10 17:31:19 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_bensonrichter/n23ze9cdum9/wish/291381878 Alifya, David, Gautham https://padlet.com/amanda_bensonrichter/n23ze9cdum9/wish/291382139 In our energy mini lab (the first test) he drop heights and their averages are 50 cm for a rebound average of 25.4 cm, 75 cm for a rebound average of 40.4 cm, and 100 cm for a rebound average of 51.8 cm.
In the second test, if the mass was higher, the amount of distance rolled is higher. For example, the tennis ball rolled more that the marble due to the fact that it had more mass.

Mass is also a factor in the system because the weight affects how far the ball will push the note card on the ruler.  This data shows that mass and height are factors that influence the amount of energy in a system.

When you dropped it from 50cm it bounced up 26.6cm but when we dropped it from 100cm it bounced up 45cm. This is because the tennis ball has more potential energy that turns into kinetic energy. ]]> 2018-10-10 17:33:41 UTC https://padlet.com/amanda_bensonrichter/n23ze9cdum9/wish/291383420 Colin, Emily, Jonathan https://padlet.com/amanda_bensonrichter/n23ze9cdum9/wish/291383507 In our energy skate park experiment, when the mass of the skater was increased, the skater energy was also increased.

Also as we increased the height of the tennis ball when we bounced it, it bounced higher as we dropped it from a higher position. For example, the bar of the total energy there was an increase of the energy when there was more mass.
