About this app
Energy Transformation is an interactive science learning app about how energy changes form in a roller coaster. Adjust the start and hill heights, run the cart, and compare potential, kinetic, and heat energy while observing that total energy stays constant. Explore everyday examples of energy changes and test your understanding with a short challenge.
Use cases
- Elementary students learning about energy transformation
- Sixth-grade science lessons on potential and kinetic energy
