Energy and Fluids Lab

Free Year 9 Science practice — energy calculations, Sankey diagrams and upthrust. No account needed.

About Energy and Fluids Lab

Calculate kinetic and gravitational energy, interpret descriptions of Sankey diagrams and explain upthrust from fluid pressure. Correct answers can trigger celebrations. Feedback and retry options depend on the game.

Curriculum purpose

Learning objective: Apply equations with units, track conserved energy and use displaced-fluid reasoning without claiming practical competence.

Curriculum anchor: England KS3 Science: energy stores and transfers, work and machines, Sankey diagrams, pressure in liquids and upthrust.

This game is designed as short independent practice after an idea has been introduced. It does not replace direct teaching, mathematical or scientific discussion, or an adult checking whether the learner can explain the idea away from the screen.

For parents and carers

Ask for the equation, units and force directions before accepting a numerical or floating explanation. Take a break when you need one.
