| Potential Energy | stored energy or energy an object has due to its position |
| Kinetic Energy | energy of motion |
| Sits atop the rollercoaster | most potential energy |
| Transference of Energy | converting one type of energy to another |
| Elastic Potential Energy | stored in a spring or rubber band |
| Releasing a rubber band | converts elastic potential energy into kinetic energy |
| friction | 2 surfaces rubbing against each other |
| ice skating | example of friction |
| bicycle tires on the road | example of friction |
| Newtons first law | object at rest stays at rest until acted upon by a force |
| Speed | Rate at which an object covers distance |
| Newton's second law | acceleration of an object depends on the force acting on the object and the object's mass |
| Newton's third law | for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction |
| Forces are measured in | Newtons |
| Energy is ability to do work and is measured in | Joules |
