Study Notes
Spinning Hula Hoop
- Experience the thrill of kinetic energy by spinning the hula hoop around your body.
- Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, which is unleashed as the hoop moves.
- Spinning the hula hoop involves coordination and rhythm, enhancing motor skills.
Slinky Spring
- Explore elasticity and energy transfer by manipulating a Slinky spring.
- Activities include bouncing, twisting, stretching, and compressing the Slinky to observe its behavior.
- Different types of energy, such as potential energy (when stretched) and kinetic energy (when in motion), are involved as the Slinky springs into action.
- The Slinky demonstrates how energy can be stored and released, illustrating fundamental physics concepts.
