Understand & apply the Law of Conservation.
Given an example scenario, explain what kinds of energy are present and what transfer and/or transformation occurred.
Apply prior knowledge of Potential and Kinetic Energy more specifically to our new energy content within this unit.
7.PS.3: Energy can be transformed or transferred but is never lost.
7.PS.4: Energy can be transferred through a variety of ways
