Click on the level labeled Playground. Experiment with the activity and familiarize yourself
with the tools, then follow and answer the questions below.
1. Construct a track that looks
like the example below. Be
sure to make the track on either
side of the loop the same
height as the loop.
In this configuration, is it
possible for the skater to make
the trip around the loop? If so,

prepare to answer the questions below.
1. Click the option called energy
plot and look at the graph as
you move the spring back and
forth. How does this compare
to a potential energy graph of
gravitational potential energy?
In the space on the right,
sketch a graph for both
gravitational potential energy
and spring potential energy.
