TUESDAY

Standard: 7.P.2

Understand forms of energy, energy transfer

and transformation and conservation in

mechanical systems.

7.P.2.1 Explain how

Kinetic & Potential Energy

contribute to the
Mechanical Energy of an object.

EQ:
How do

Potential Energy

&

Kinetic Energy

Contribute to the

Mechanical Energy of an Object?

BIG IDEA

❖ Energy is NEITHER created nor destroyed,

but it can be transformed from one form to
another.

❖ The two forms of energy are potential

energy and kinetic energy.

❖ Energy is the ability of an object to do work.
❖ Force is an action that pushes or pulls an

object.
