It s the same thing Law of Conservation of Energy What does the Law state? Under ideal conditions energy is not created or destroyed It is only converted from one form to another Remember DON T JUST THINK ABOUT PLUGGING IN NUMBERS. Anybody can plug numbers into equations. UNDERSTAND what the numbers tell you about the world you live in. There are LOTS of ways to ask questions about the concepts we ve covered you know that. Think of as many possible questions that could be asked and write them down. Think of both qualitative and quantitative questions. Don t limit yourself to the easy stuff challenge yourself. LOOK at all of your notes, homework, labs, old tests, Chapters 1-8, 21, 22 of the TEXT and work through the practice final. Study for YOURSELF NOT from others.
