Now answer these questions
What is this game modeling?
What should you do if you have an odd number of Kinetic Energy Points?
What is the total Kinetic Energy for the Cocoa at the start of the game?
What is the total Kinetic Energy for the Air at the start of the game?
If my Air has 2 Kinetic Energy and the Cocoa has 8 Kinetic Energy, How much Kinetic Energy does each one have after the collision?
Explain how you figured out the answer to number 5.
If my Air has 2 Kinetic Energy and Cocoa has 8 Kinetic Energy, how much Kinetic Energy does the air gain or lose? How much Kinetic Energy does the Cocoa gain or lose?
Explain how you figured out the answer to number 7.
How many collisions occur in each round?
1. This game is modeling collisions between particles (cocoa and air) to demonstrate the conservation of kinetic energy.
2. If you have an odd number of Kinetic Energy Points, you should round down the total kinetic energy.
3. The total Kinetic Energy for the Cocoa at the start of the game is 24.
4. The total Kinetic Energy for the Air at the start of the game is 12.
5. If the Air has 2 Kinetic Energy and the Cocoa has 8 Kinetic Energy, each one will have 5 Kinetic Energy after the collision.
6. I figured out the answer to number 5 by adding the Kinetic Energy of the Air and Cocoa (2 + 8 = 10) and then dividing by 2 to evenly distribute the kinetic energy.
7. If the Air has 2 Kinetic Energy and Cocoa has 8 Kinetic Energy, the Air gains 3 Kinetic Energy and the Cocoa loses 3 Kinetic Energy.
8. I figured out the answer to number 7 by subtracting the final Kinetic Energy from the initial Kinetic Energy for both the Air and Cocoa.
9. In each round, there is one collision between the Cocoa and Air particles.
