Energy Conservation Purpose: To calculate the kinetic, potential, and total energies for a skater on a track, and relate them to the Law of Conservation of Energy. Procedure: There weren’t any changes that needed to be made, it was actually fun and I enjoyed it. By Destinee Santiago (2023) 1

Discussion: Write a discussion that addresses the following questions. In part 1, how did the initial and final heights compare? Did the speed stay constant on the horizontal portion of the ramp? Cite numbers. Based on what you learned about Galileo, were these the expected behaviors? They were the same both ways. When the skateboard went on the ramp from each side the numbers were the same. On the horizontal portion of the ramp the speed stayed constant. The speed stayed at 8.8 m/s. These behaviors were expected because of the Laws of Motion. -c h In part 2, how did the initial potential energy at the top compare to the final kinetic energy at the bottom? Considering Parts 2 and 3, how do your numbers support the Law of Conservation of Energy? They compare because the potential energy at the top is converted into kinetic energy at the bottom. My number support the law of conservation of energy because its supported by experiments, data and results, and calculations. By Destinee Santiago (2023) 5
