This is the amount of force applied over a certain distance or Blank = Force x distance
What is Work
What two ways can you change your power?
Increase work, decrease time
Name 2 types of Potential energy

Kinetic energy is when an object is ________.
Moving
This states that energy cannot be created or destroyed, it can only be transferred or change forms.
What is Energy Conservation
