Summary of my project:

 

What starting height was needed for the marble to make it through the loop most of the time? 6 foot 3 inches
What can you determine about the relationship between potential energy and kinetic energy? energy of motion then energy of motion
  • Potential energy- energy in waiting
  • Kinetic energy- energy of motion
  • Conservation of energy-energy in waiting
  • Gravity- invisible force that keeps stuff down
  • Velocity- height
  • Friction-invisible force that slows stuff down
  • Slope- up then down
