    • Develop a plan for a Rube Goldberg machine
      • must have 6 energy transfers
      • must have 4 different types of energy
      • must have 1 form of "lost" energy
      • must have descriptions of the transfers and energies that demonstrate general understanding of the types of energy
      • must have a description of how the machine demonstrates the law of conservation of energy
      • instead of Goldberg machine, use another system such as nuclear power plant, or pencil sharpener
Homework:
  • Energy transformation and conservation of energy test, moved to Tuesday 4/11
