INDEPENDENT ROTATION
ROTATION EXPLANATION:
Learners (You) will complete the NRG SK8R: Energy Skate Park Simulation Activity. The activity will allow learners (you) to see how energy gets transferred in a real world application.

KEY LEARNING:
There is a single quantity called energy and due to the fact that a systems total energy is conserved even as within the system energy is continually transferred from one object to another and between its various possible forms.

LEARNER EXPECTATIONS:
1. For all tasks, work quietly and complete each task on your own.
2. Should you have a question, raise your hand and a teacher will be around to assist you.

MATERIALS NEEDED:
- Student Laptop
- NRG SK8R packet
- Colored pencils
ACTIVITIES & INSTRUCTIONS
1. Every learner should take a packet from the folder.
2. Proceed to each activity outlined below.
ACTIVITY 1
1. Watch the video below on potential energy and kinetic energy. As you watch the video, record the definitions for potential and kinetic energies on page 1 of your NRG SK8R simulation packet.
2. Watch the video below on Thermal Energy.
PLEASE START THE VIDEO AT 38 seconds AND END AT 2 MINUTES 14 SECONDS. As you watch the video, record the definition for thermal energy on page 1 of your NRG SK8R Simulation packet. |
ACTIVITY 2
In the NRG SK8R: Energy Skate Park Simulation Packet complete the following:
Part 1: A. After you have completed the description of terms on page 1 of the activity packet, answer the two (2) questions that follow the terms. B. On page 2, predict, by drawing graphs, what energy-time graphs will look like if the skater moves without friction. C. On page 3, predict, by drawing graphs, what energy-time graphs will look like if the skater moves with friction. Part 2: 1. Check your predictions using the simulation. 2. .As you work through the simulation, make sure you are completing the questions (1-7) that accompany the activity.
Part 3:
