UNIT 4: WORK, POWER

​& ENERGY

​"Energy" is a word that's used a lot. Here, you'll learn about how it's one of the most useful concepts in physics. Along the way, we'll talk about work, kinetic energy, potential energy, conservation of energy, and mechanical advantage.
NC STANDARDS
PSc.3.1.1: Explain thermal energy & its transfer
PSc. 3.1.2: Explain the law of conservation on energy in a mechanical system in terms of kinetic energy, potential energy and heat
PSc. 3.1.3: Explain work in terms of the relationship among the applied force to an object, the resulting displacement of the object and the energy transferred to an object
PSc. 3.1.4: Explain the relationship among work, power and simple machines both qualitatively and quantitively 
ESSENTIAL QUESTIONS
1. How do we determine whether or not work is being done in a system?
2. How are energy and work related?
3. How is the energy of a system conserved?
​4. How is the power of a system determined?
