Electrical Energy

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...

Rollercoaster

Document: Roller Coaster Physics Investigation Performance Task Abstract: The purpose of this simulation lab is to strengthen your understanding of energy conservation in real-world applications.  You will use a skateboarder and his park to represent the roller coaster and its track.  You will observe many other physics concepts at work as well.

Newtonian Vehicle

Document: Newtonian Vehicle Abstract: You will design, build, and test a self-propelling vehicle that can travel a minimum distance of one meter. When designing the vehicle, sketch a diagram showing how it will be propelled (balloon, rubber band, mousetrap, etc.) and the forces that act on the vehicle when it is stationary and moving. After building and testing the vehicle, write...
