Unit 5 Physics Case Study

Document: unit 5 physics case study hearing_loss Document: unit 5 physics case studycell_phone Abstract: Why does grandpa ignore grandma?-Carla, a first semester graduate student in audiology, has noticed that her grandfather appears to be having trouble hearing what her grandmother says. Other people in the family can’ help but notice it too as it becomes a source of increasing aggravation and...

Gravity Waves Make Tornadoes

Document: Gravity Waves Make Tornadoes Abstract: GrITs stands for Gravity wave Interactions with Tornadoes. “It’s a computer model I developed to study how atmospheric gravity waves interact with severe storms,” says research meteorologist Tim Coleman of the National Space Science and Technology Center in Huntsville, Alabama.

Unit 3 Physics Case Study

Document: Unit 3 Physics Case Study Abstract: In this case study, two students have been asked to conduct a “systems analysis” study to determine whether ethanol derived from corn or biodiesel prepared from soybeans is the more energy efficient alternative fuel. The students must investigate the two systems very broadly to determine all energy inputs and outputs. When the corn-to-ethanol system...

The Fender Bender Case Study

Document: The Fender Bender Case Study-6 Abstract: John knew that his parents would be furious when he told them about the fender bender he just got in. But he was convinced that the accident was not his fault. Can John’s experiment prove to his dad that he was not to blame for the fender bender?

Designing a Solar Environmental Home

Document: ScienceUnit2Template-Forces-1 Abstract:  This unit provides the students with an opportunity to develop an understanding of the physical ideas and concepts that were developed during the seventeenth century by Sir Isaac Newton.  Throughout the unit the students are constantly asked to explain familiar phenomena and situations by utilizing the concepts of force, momentum, work, mass, acceleration, and velocity.
