Energy

The Physics credential documents competencies in areas related to mechanics, materials, gasses and liquids, heating and cooling, acoustics, optics, electricity, and magnetism, radiation and nuclear physics, architecture, and a variety of related research and education areas. Specifically, this badge demonstrates the earner's ability to explain physics concepts by applying knowledge and solving problems related to energy including work, potential energy, kinetic energy, the Work-Energy Theorem, conservation of energy, energy as applied to machines, efficiency, and sources of energy.
