Struggling to understand electric potential energy in a system of three point charges? In this AP Physics 2 lesson, Mr. P and the Flipping Physics crew walk through a conceptual and mathematical breakdown of how to calculate and...

“Interconnected Ecosystems” explores interdependent relationships between living things in various biomes.

“Stored Energy” explains how potential energy is stored, how objects have potential energy, and how potential energy is changed to kinetic energy.

A video entitled “Energy of Roller Coasters” which describes how roller coasters use potential and kinetic energy to move.

Energy is all around us. There are two main types of energy - kinetic energy and potential energy. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion and potential energy is stored energy. In this video, we will cover both kinetic and potential...

Dr. Forrester describes potential energy by examining such energies as gravitational, sound, and thermal. She also observes potential energy by conducting an experiment.

Potential Energy compares and contrasts gravitational potential energy and elastic potential energy by examining characteristics of each.

Kinetic vs. Potential Energy examines kinetic and potential energy by defining and providing examples of each.

A spring is a coil or spiral of metal that can stretch or compress when force is applied, but returns to its original shape when the force is removed. Springs can be made of different materials, but for effective functionality, they are...

Energy is vital to powering our brains, our bodies, and our entire universe. Find out a little more about the different kinds of energy and how they impact your on a daily basis.

Adding suspensions to your robot can give you an advantage. In this RoboBench, Tim Lankford explains how adding suspension can be of benefit, how the suspension works, and shows the building process.

Life is chemistry. From diatom to Diana, life is not a magical imbued trait, is a process of the physics of our universe. The precise and convoluted chemistry of life requires specific physical and chemical situations. And this planet...

Upon viewing the Exploring Energy video series, students will be able to do the following: Define energy as the ability to do work. Cite everyday examples of how energy is used to do work. Understand that kinetic energy is sometimes...

This video is a lesson on energy and its different forms. It explains what energy is, the law of conservation of energy, and the two main types of energy: potential energy and kinetic energy. The video also discusses different examples...
