Essential Questions How can you recognize a pattern?
WD How can you recognize a pattern? How can a pattern help you make predictions?
3
Goals Use numerical data to prove that an inverse relationship exists between the effort force and effort distance. Recognize that when a simple machine is used, by applying an effort force over a specific effort distance, energy is transferred from the user to the machine to accomplish a task. Interpret data from previous activities and draw conclusions about the effort distance, effort force, and the energy transferred during the process. Quantify the amount of energy used by a simple machine to accomplish a task.

Main Ideas WD When a simple machine is used, by applying an effort force over a specific effort distance, energy is transferred from the user to the machine to accomplish a task. The energy put into a system to accomplish a task is the same each time, so long as the task remains the same. The input energy, as well as the output energy, of a system can be quantified.
