CH7 Potential Energy and Energy Conservation
 

Goals for Chapter 7

 · To study gravitational and elastic potential energy

 · To determine when total mechanical energy is conserved

 · To examine situations when total mechanical energy is not conserved

 · To examine conservative forces, nonconservative forces, and the law of energy conservation

 · To determine force from potential energy
