The Law of Conservation of Energy states that

• the force applied to an object multiplied by the object's mass will equal its acceleration.

• if you lay on the couch all day playing video games you don't have to sleep as much since your energy was conserved.

• energy can be converted from one form to another, but cannot be created or destroyed.

• The ability to do work (cause change.) Work is ALWAYS measured in Joules (J)

What is power? (scientific definition)

• the rate at which work is done

• a push or pull on an object

• how much control you have over others

• the force applied to an object is related to how far it is moved by that force
