Physics 341 Energy

Introduction: What do you know?

Fill out this [|__google form__]  so I can assess your previous knowledge and learn what you would like to know more of about energy.

For the short answer questions please be thoughtful, thorough, and articulate when completing the form. If you give a response like “I don’t know” or “I don’t care” it will cost you points on this assignment.

Part 1: Cartoon

Understanding energy will be an essential part of this course for the rest of the year. Energy transformations can be used to describe the changes in the state of any object.

Use [|__powtoon__]  to create a cartoon that will help you and your classmates remember the following: 1) Names of the type of energy 2) Factors that affect the energy type 3) How it can be used

The information does not have to be listed, try to be creative and present the information in a fun way
