MECHANICS 2

This topic covers work, energy, power, linear momentum, simple machines, and pressure. Learners will develop systems that maximise mechanical energy, apply the principle of momentum in everyday scenarios, design simple machines, and explore pressure concepts through experiments. Key activities include building hydraulic systems, demonstrating Archimedes' principle, and calculating pressure in liquids and gases. Understanding these concepts is essential for ECZ exams and practical assessments, as they link Physics principles to technological applications. The topic fosters innovation and problem-solving, preparing Zambian learners for further studies in engineering and technology within the competence-based curriculum framework.
