This sheet models completion of Physics calculations showing all the working out. This allows students to complete examples side-by-side with a worked example. In this sheet using the equation, work done = force x distance.

Students follow one worked example for an energy analysis calculation then complete further examples side-by-side. They are then given three further examples.
