Energy transformations

Conservation of Energy states: energy can not be created or destroyed. HOWEVER, it can change form.

We completed/reviewed our energy transformation packets.

NOTEBOOK QUIZ THURSDAY: Get your notebook in order. You may throw away anything not related to Energy (January). Keep everything from January/Energy.

Also all missing work is due no later than Thursday: MOS logs, lab reports, graphs, etc.

Potential vs. Kinetic

If you paid attention in class today, then you should know the difference between the two types.

For those that are interested in the simulation used in class or others, click on the link below. Feel free to try different simulations and write about what you did/what you learned (MOS logs!!).

Midterm!

Congratulations! You survived the science midterm. Only 2 more to go (SS-Thurs and Math- Fri).

Due to the midterms, I am not assigning homework. HOWEVER, if there are things YOU do not finish in class...then you gave yourself  homework, not me.

Reminder that MOS logs are due this FRIDAY! You should have 6 logs completed for a QUIZ grade!
