| Title | Conservation of Energy 4 Energy Skate Park: Calculations with Conservation of Mechanical Energy using time graphs (Inquiry Based) |
| Description | This is a guided inquiry lab that is the fourth in a series that uses Energy Skate Park. Learning Goals: Students will be able to use Energy-Time graphs to use a given time to: Estimate a location for the Skater on a track; Calculate the speed or height of the Skater Friction and frictionless; Predict energy distribution for tracks with and without friction. This has not been updated for the html5 version, but could be used on the playground screen. |
