Potential Energy, Kinetic Energy, and g (Gravity)
by Berge Jerijian
This is an introductory lesson that focuses on kinetic energy, the energy of motion, potential energy, the energy of future motion, their relation to each other, the effect of Earth's gravity on an object's potential energy, and the calculation of both values. This impactful lesson focuses on science and math concepts and includes a hands-on activity.
