Document: Energy and Electric Field Activity Abstract: In completing this activity, you are to utilize some online applications and other online resources to make some conclusions regarding electric fields. First, follow this link http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulations/category/physics , select and explore the indicated simulation (for the first two) and then respond to the questions listed.
Document: Friction Abstract: Friction is a Force that always pushes against an object when it touches another object” “When 2 things are in contact with each other, there will be friction acting between them”
Document: Speed Investigation Activity Abstract: Student investigates speed as an important variable regarding force of an impact. Students roll a car down a ramp and into a block of wood. The distance the car travels, the time until impact and the distance the block moves are recorded. The speed of the car is calculated. Students are asked to design and perform...
Document: Balloon Vehicle Hands-on Activity1 (1) Abstract: Make a vehicle using the materials provided. This vehicle should do the following: Use wind power from the balloon to supply a force to move the vehicle travel in a straight line.
Document: Energy and Electric Field Activity-1 Abstract: Use this applet for a couple of minutes. Add multiple charges using the “add” button. To adjust the sign or mass of a charge to be added, you must first click on the “Properties” button, make your change and click “done”. The next charge you add will reflect your change. For some reason...
