5.3 Mechanical Energy Calculation Worksheet -
- Notice that the first couple of pages contain the answers to the problems (including work). I want you to work through the problems and then use those pages to check to make sure you are doing them correctly. I understand that you could just copy down the work and answers but remember, you will be tested over this and you are responsible for understanding the concepts/material. I trust that you will utilize this as a tool for self-checking and not merely as a cheat sheet.
