Back from a much-needed rest and ready to explore the science of forces and motion (physics)! We will begin our investigations by understanding the two basic types of energy–potential and kinetic. Our labs will involve identifying and describing not only PE/KE but how motion relates to Newton’s three laws. By understanding and applying Newton’s laws we can unlock many mysteries and misunderstandings why things move.
