PowerPoint lesson II in the "Energy" unit - introductory physics. This lesson explains how energy can be converted; the law of conservation of energy and how energy relates to mass.

PowerPoint lessons contain many graphics and links to short videos to further student understanding.

PowerPoint slides also contain notes for the instructor based on students most "frequently asked questions" or FAQ's to help clarify the subject.

A class activity is included at the end of each lesson and interactive quiz/reviews using Kahoot.it and Quizizz.com are also included as links in the last slide.

A separate student note guide is also available for this lesson.

*All PowerPoint lessons; review programs; student worksheets/activities and assessments for this unit can be found under the "Introductory Physics Complete Unit V Energy" zip file folder.
