Step-by-Step Explanation
The images and descriptions will be graded based on the following requirements. Each individual
transition is scored separately, and those scores are compiled to determine the grade for the report.
1. Images, which can be hand-drawn or photographed (3pts max)
a. Clearly show the energy transfer
b. Energy input, potential, and output is labeled
i. Arrows or circles that clarify where the energy is coming from and going to
2. Explanation of energy transition (7pts max)
a. Identify the kinetic (or other) energy that is used to start the energy transition(1pt)
b. Identify the potential energy that must be stored for the transition to work(2pts)
c. Describe the type of energy output- what happens as a result of the transition(2pts)
d. Describe a plausible problem that could cause this transition to fail(2pts)
i. HINT: This may be something that you have to consider during construction
