Teaching Systems Physics Module 6: Work and Energy

Product Description

This module introduces the all important concept of work to the Physics student. Physics stops being theoretical at this point and becomes useful. The conservation of energy by conversion between its different forms is both a mathematical construct as well as a physical reality. Therefore work becomes a basic construct of Physics, Biology, and Chemistry. Kinetic energy vs. potential energy, the work-kinetic energy principle, and the use of the universal gravitation constant are covered in this module.
