World in Motion
To complement our Model UN studies, we will design, develop and race vehicles powered by alternative energy sources. Each group will represent a country and race to determine who has the highest speed and longest distance.
Learning Objectives:
Physics: Understand how potential energy can be converted to kinetic energy to create motion. Understand the relationship between velocity, acceleration, mass and kinetic and potential energy.
Essential Question:
How is the conversion of potential energy into different forms, including kinetic energy, harnessed in our everyday lives?
