In this interactive activity, users create two energy diagrams to reflect kinetic energy and gravitational potential energy of a car rolling down a hill. The side-by-side graphs allow beginners to discover how energy is conserved in mechanical processes. Automated feedback allows this applet to be used as a tutorial or online homework. After mastery of this activity, users may move on to incrementally more difficult processes. This resource is part of a larger collection of interactive resources sponsored by PADs.
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
