Learn about energy and power in this learning module that contains videos and animation.

Through examples and interactive practice problems, motion will be approached from the perspective of work and energy.

In the following interactive students will begin to explain the human body's consumption of energy when at rest vs. when engaged in activities that do useful work. They will also calculate the conversion of chemical energy in food into...

Through illustrated examples and practice problems, students apply the relationship between work and mechanical energy change to a variety of motion scenarios in order to test our understanding.

In this interactive exercise, explore the quantitative relationship between work and mechanical energy in situations in which there are no external forces doing work.

In this module, students learn how work, energy, and power are related to one another in various ways. They also learn about collisions and the conservation of momentum.

Through illustrated examples and interactive examples, students learn about the two categories of forces are referred to as internal forces and external forces.

Through interactive exercises and illustrated examples, students analyze situations involving external forces.

This introduction to potential energy contains illustrated examples, example problems, and interactive exercises for application of learning.

Introduce students to the concept of kinetic energy through interactive practice exercises and illustrated examples.

Introduce students to the concept of mechanical energy through interactive practice exercises and illustrated examples.

At this site from The Nobel Foundation, read about the life and scientific discoveries of physicist Enrico Fermi (1901-1954), whose work with radiation and "discovery of nuclear reactions brought about by slow neutrons" earned him the...

Kids learn about power in the science of physics and the laws of motion including units and measurement in watts. Calculate power using work divided by time.

This lesson focuses on energy and power. Energy is a key principle in physics, as it allows work to be done. The rate at which energy is transferred is called power and the amount of energy that is usefully transferred is called...
