Using up lots of Energy

Our latest unit is Energy. We have learned how energy is transformed in different processes. We learned how to make energy flow diagrams, identify the system, and calculate work. We also learned how to calculate power, and identifying how the energy is transformed in each problem. We learned how to calculate kinetic energy, potential energy, elastic potential energy, and mechanical energy. For a reflection on this unit, we chose an application and had to explain the system, the energy stored, and the energy transformations. I chose cheerleading basket tosses and used Prezi. In my example, air resistance is negligible.
