Energy Resources problem 19


A drone is a machine that can fly. The figure below shows a drone rising into the air, lifting a camera.




The drone obtains energy from a battery of cells.


  • Complete the sequence of useful energy transfers as the drone rises into the air.

    One part is done for you.


    ..................................... electrical energy .............................................


  • The drone can move in any direction up or down, backwards or forwards, left or right. It can

    also remain stationary above the ground.


    Describe the motion and position of the drone when it has both a large quantity of potential

    energy and a small quantity of kinetic energy.


  • When the drone moves, it wastes some energy. State the form of wasted energy and describe

    what happens to this energy
