QUIZ ON FRIDAY

Force and Acceleration Lab V: 2

BB vs. Golf Ball

- Students will flick a BB across a table.- Students will then flick a golf ball with the same amount

of force.- Students will record their observations in the data table.- Students will then increase the amount of force applied

to each and record their observations in the data table.

Force and Acceleration Lab V: 2

Ping Pong Ball vs. Golf Ball

- Using a book and a ruler, students will create an inclined plane.

- At the end of the ruler, the students will place a cup upside down with the cut out side facing the ruler.

- The students will release the ping pong ball 3 times and record the distance the cup moves.

- Students will repeat the steps with the golf ball.- Record the data in the data table.

Force and Acceleration Lab V: 2

Forces applied to a car

- Students will place a toy car in between 2 rulers.- Using a popsicle stick, they will apply a weak force to

the car and record the distance it travels. Repeat this 3 times.

- They will then apply a strong force to the car and record the distance it travels. Repeat this 3 times.

Newton’s Laws Foldable V: 0

Create a three-fold foldable for Newton’s Laws.

Students will read pages 208-209 from the textbook.

After reading, the students will complete problems 16-18, then add the formula, definition, and a picture with a description to the foldable for the 2nd law.

Teacher Demo V: 0

Teacher will demonstrate the BB vs. Marble in a test tube.

The students will draw a picture and write a description beneath the data tables on the Force and Acceleration lab sheet.
