Serc: Com Padre: Introduction to Work and Energy: The Hopper Popper Surprise
This activity will provide students with a qualitative understanding of the Work-Energy Theorem, especially on how the energy transferred depends on the distance over which the force is applied.
Bozeman Science
Bozeman Science: Work and Energy
In the following video Paul Andersen explains how the mechanical energy added or removed from a system results from work. For work to occur a force must act parallel to the displacement of the system. Since work and energy are equivalent...
