If I were to drop a ball and my friend said that the energy went somewhere It wouldn't be intirely true nor would it be intirely wrong. In part the balls energy did go somewhere, but it realy didn't dissapear. The balls kinetic energy was just converted back into potential energy. So it did go away, but it realy didn't leave it just got converted into potential energy. In truth she was partly correct.

Week1_Prompt#2
When a person bounces a basket ball the process of conversion is occuring,changing potential energy into kinetic energy. The reason for the conversion was that when the person holding the ball is keeping the ball in place it's expresing potential energy. Because it has the potential to release energy but it dosent. Then when the person let's go of the ball and it bounces it releases kinetic energy witch contributes to the conversion process, because it changed from potentail to kinetic energy in the time from the person holding the ball and getting ready to bounce it and the ball being released and bouncing. Then the ball will stop bouncing and that will also be conversion, from kinetic back to potentiol energy. That's what occurs in the conversion of a basket ball from potential to kinetic energy back to potential energy.

Technology-in science
I think it is a great thing to add technology in science.Though i am neutral when it comes to science i personaly think that it wll make science mor interesting.I'm also very excited about doing more things on the cumputer instead of doing it traditionaly.So i basicly think that its a great idea. Thats all i have to say about the matter.
