|Directions: Use the links (blue underlined words) provided to find the answers to the questions. You might find my Getting Back|
|Tips helpful. Note: Many links in this project take you to web servers in Scotland. That may mean the pages load a bit slower. |
|Be patient! |
|1. Newton's first law is...... |
|Read the example given. Now write a different one of your own. |
| |
|Friction plays an important role when you consider inertia. What is friction? |
| |
|2. What is force? |
| |
|What unit of measurement is used for force? |
| |
|3. Is a force required to keep an object in motion? Explain your answer. |
| |
|4. What is Newton's second law? |
| |
|5. If the same force is applied to two different objects, what will determine the difference in their motion? |
| |
|6. What happens to acceleration if you double the force being applied? |
| |
|7. What is Newton's third law? |
| |
|8. Make some scientific observations using this online Newton’s Cradle. What happens when you set it to 1? |
| |
|What happens when you set it to 2? |
| |
|What happens when you set it to 3? |
| |
|Predict what will happen when you set it to 4? |
| |
|Make the change. Was your prediction correct? ____________________ |
| |
|9. When am I ever going to use this? Complete the problems. |
|Which law of motion applies? |
| |
|Extended thinking: |
|* Tackle one of Mr. Everly's fun physics worksheets |
|* A Pennsylvania high school class created an exceptional video called Eastern York's Physics Man. They entered it in a |
|nationwide contest sponsored by Wired and won 1st place with it! The requirements were that it had to use their song, be a |
|music video, and it had to be related to physics. The video is posted on , if you are interested in checking it out.|
| |
|Take up the challenge. Make you own digital physics video. |
| |
|* It's like Everywhere! This sentence uses physics vocabulary to explain something nonscientific. |
|There is considerable friction between Tom and his parents due to his inertia over mowing the lawn. His dad does not want to |
|force him, but he will in order to accelerate the completion of the project. His mom thinks Tom does not understand the gravity|
|of the situation. |
|Explain it: |
