Specification

  • understand the difference between the gravitational and kinetic energy
  • gravitational potential energy = mass * gravity * height
  • kinetic energy = 1/2 * mass * velocity
  • understand how conservation of energy produces a link between GPE, Ke and work done


Main Body of Lesson

  • Unserstand that kinetic energy is energy of motion
  • Kinetic energy = ½ mv2
  • understand that gravitational potential energy is the energy due the position of an object
  • GPE = mgh
  • understand and use Work Done = Energy transferred!
  • recall efficiency
  • use 'efficiency of a ramp' work sheet ( Science Shared)for the practical aspect of this lesson
