Year 8 - Energy

Everyday we use lots of machines to make work easier.

Year 8s have become experts on recognising mechanisms in simple machines that make work easier by reducing the force needed.

A lever is a great example of how force can be multipled by increasing the distance from the pivot.

Year 8 students carried out a scientific investigation to understand how distance from the pivot would make work easier.
