Energy Unit Concept Map(see page 19 for directions)Energy Unit Concept CardsEnergy Unit Back PageThe California Dept. of Education Standards I have come to understand are:2.a. Students know how to calculate kinetic energy by using the formula E = (1/2)mv2. 2.b. Students know how to calculate changes in gravitational potential energy near Earth by using the formula (change in potential energy) =mgh (h is the change in the elevation).2.e. Students know momentum is a separately conserved quantity different from energy. 2.g. Students know how to solve problems involving elastic and inelastic collisions in one dimension by using the principles of conservation of momentum and energy.3.a. Students know heat flow and work are two forms of energy transfer between systems. ................
