Module 6: Conservation of Energy and Momentum (17 Days)
The purpose of this page.
This page will contain all the information a student may need to study for a module. It may not be necessary to study ALL of the material. The goal is to provide choices for a student that fit their learning style. If a specific resources is to be used, the instructor will make that clear to the students.

Phet Simulations
Energy Skate ParkLearn about conservation of energy with a skater dude! Build tracks, ramps and jumps for the skater and view the kinetic energy, potential energy and friction as he moves. You can also take the skater to different planets or even space!
|
Masses & SpringsA realistic mass and spring laboratory. Hang masses from springs and adjust the spring stiffness and damping. You can even slow time. Transport the lab to different planets. A chart shows the kinetic, potential, and thermal energy for each spring.
