What happens when the club hits the ball

Let’s see what we learned this week! Ask your parent to read each question aloud and talk about the answers together.

For parent-teachers: correct answer shown in orange-brown. Use as a discussion guide, not a grading tool.

Question 1

What is energy?

  • ○ The loud sound a golf club makes
  • ✓ The ability to do work or make something move
  • ○ How tired you feel after playing

Question 2

What happens to energy in the club when it hits the ball?

  • ○ It disappears
  • ✓ It transfers from the club into the ball, making the ball move
  • ○ It stays in the club

Question 3

Why does a bigger heavier club usually hit farther?

  • ○ Because it looks more impressive
  • ✓ Because it stores and transfers more energy to the ball
  • ○ Because the rules say it should
Parent-Teacher Note

Energy transfer is the core physics concept behind every golf shot. Keep returning to: ‘Where did the energy come from? Where did it go?’ This question unlocks the physics of every shot.
