Description should include
- stating the law of conservation of energy (the sum of all energy present in a system)
- stating the specific types of energy to consider (i.e., kinetic and potential)
- defining heat energy as energy lost in the system.
Process/Skill Questions:
- In what systems is energy conservation most challenging?
- How can energy conservation be maximized in each system?
- What is the law of conservation of energy?
- How does one calculate potential, kinetic, and heat energy using the law of conservation of energy?
