Day 01 - Worksheet 7A
Today we're starting a new unit: kinetic and potential energy. To get going, create a Google Doc in your individual folder, title it "KE_PE" and define both kinetic and potential energy at the top of the document. Provide at least 2 examples of each form of energy. Then define Newtons.
Once that is complete Worksheet 7A. I will walk you through the first problem so you can see how I require you to solve these and how to document your work. On yesterday's test, far too many points were lost due to failure to document properly. Documentation is the foundation of professional engineering standards; without good documentation, you are wasting your time and your brainpower, because nobody else will be able to benefit from the solutions you develop. Take care to document your work thoroughly, honestly, and accurately.
