Work, Power, and Energy

Motion is directly tied to mechanical energy, specifically kinetic and potential energy. In order to change the established movement of an object a force must be applied. This results in work, the rate it's done is called power. The Work-Energy Principle ties these concepts together. We will explore this principle and the various aspects of work, power, and kinetic and potential energy. Practice with solving word problems will also occur. 

Warm-ups and exit Tickets

As discussed in class, we will be completing a warm-up EVERY DAY. Should time allow, an exit ticket will be also be done. The power point below is a collection of these activities. 
  • Daily Projections ppt - As of 1/15
  • ​Warm-ups for 1/12 & (1/13 or 1/14)

​Please Note:
  • The 'As of' date will change each time the power point is updated.
  • Slides without dates are problems that MAY be used in the future.
  • At the end of the unit, any unused slide can be completed for extra credit.

special cases

Sub Work Monday 1/11: A packet made of the following assignments will be due at the end of the class Monday.
If you would like to complete them early, please print out each and staple them together before handing them in. 
  1. 'Describing Motion'- Treat as a warm-up. Show the sub you've completed this BEFORE moving to a computer
  2. 'Acceleration Notes'- Access the One Dimensional Motion ppt and look at slides #9-11. 
  3. 'Acceleration' Word Problems- Choose 5 problems to complete; completion of more will be extra credit.

Motion Notes

Motion Graph Notes- Notes and practice problems. Last two pages make up Assignment #2 Motion Graphs WS.

One Dimensional Motion ppt- The notes below are fill-in-the-blank. Both sets of notes can be found in this one powerpoint.
  • One Dimensional Motion Notes
  • ​Acceleration Notes- On the back of the 'Describing Motion' WS, this will be Sub work! 

Word Problem Notes will be posted this weekend. 

Extra Credit

As we complete the unit, some intended assignments will not be completed in class. Below are these extra assignments that, if completed, can replace a similar assignment, or earn student a maximum of 5pts on the test. (At least 70% accuracy is required.)
  • '​The 400 Meter Dash' Worksheet
  • ​Unused '​Daily Projections' sildes
  • POGIL Motion WS (pg.1)
  • 'An Expanding City' Worksheet
  • 'Jesse Owens 100m Dash' WS

Energy TEst- Tues 3/1
