This resource examines how to determine the maximum speed of an oscillating system. It discusses how the concept of law of energy can be applied in solving these types of problems.

This site is from the Physics Department at Georgia State University. The reliance upon the law of conservation of energy as an approach to problem-solving is presented and encouraged. It is modeled through a problem involving a...

Fourth graders use a toy to make observations that speed is related to the amount of energy in an object as well as work with gravitational and elastic potential energy.

Find out how fleas, catapults, and archers convert stored energy into kinetic energy.
