Energy is defined as the ability to do work. All forms of energy can be used to do work. Observing different forms of energy and possible effects of the constructed model car as it travels down 3 alternative angled ramp, the experiment assigned was to design, construct, and test a model car and to identify the different forms of energy converted in the model car.
The different forms of energy contained in the model car are, kinetic energy, gravitational potential energy, and also heat energy.
Kinetic energy is the energy of motion, observable as the movement of an object, particle, or set of particles. Kinetic energy is contained in the model car is because the model car is processed by a moving object. The speed and the mass of the model
