Unit 8 Part 2
In the second part of Unit 8, we learned more about the different types of energy and also learned about power. Power is the rate at which work is done and is measured in watts. We also used graphs to represent the distribution of total energy. In the first picture represented by my first graph, you can see that my friend jumping over my other friend has all of his energy in potential energy because he's at his maximum height and at that moment has a horizontal velocity of 0 m/s. in the second picture represented by the second graph, you can see that as hes is about to hit the ground which is a height of 0 meters, his potential energy is 0 because it has all become kinetic energy.

Nice job and I like the bar graphs! Good luck with your launches today.
