the triangulation and horizontal accelerometer questions are here

We study static cling (along with frizzy hair) in terms of electrostatic repulsion and attraction here.  Also, we study magnetism.  We'll compare their differences and similarities here.

This is what you'll need for Knott's Physics day. It makes waiting in line feel quicker.  You'll also be turning it in when we get dropped off back here.  Print it out by Monday!

This lesson explores impulse and momentum using 2 lab carts bumping into each other among other things.

This explores physical work & energy, its conservation, and energy types.

This explores Newton's 3rd Law and the normal force, the force of friction, and the force of tension.

Carts, masses, and pulleys.  Tie a string to the cart and accelerate it with hanging masses. We discover how force affects motion here.

This Discovery Lab is about accelerations. Collect data by using motion detectors to find the motion of a lab cart rolling back and forth on the tabletop along a line. Then use the data to explore position, velocity, and ultimately acceleration graphs.

This Discovery Lab is about accelerations. Collect data by timing when the cart crossed the tape marks placed at regular intervals on the tabletop along a line. Then use the data to explore position, velocity, and ultimately acceleration graphs.

This is our second Discovery Lab. Collect data by timing when we crossed the flags placed 5 meters apart for 40 meters along a line in the field. Then use the data to explore position and velocity graphs. Graphing is a good time.

This is our second Discovery Lab. Collect data of your movement in the classroom using motion detectors. Then use the data to explore position and velocity graphs. Graphing is a good time.

Make a can move 1 meter across the floor in a wacky, physics-filled way!  Here are the guidelines, requirements, and limitations.

This is a little practice with circuits using Ohm's Law, Power Law, and Kirchoff's Laws.  What are current, voltage, and power like in series and in parallel?  That's what we look at.

Here's a handy (and fun) reference page for what each type of shot is for, what it looks like, and what it says when you use it.  It should help with camera angles (and with storyboarding).  Enjoy!

Here is an example of how to answer the questions.  It's just a few of the original 15, but it gets the idea across.  Check it out!

This handout helps us make sense of static friction and kinetic friction.

These handouts help you understand Newton's 3rd Law: The Law of Action and Reaction forces

Handouts with practice using Newton's 1st and 2nd Laws of Motion to solve for values of acceleration, force, and mass in a variety of situations

This explores Newton's 3rd Law and the normal force, the force of friction, and the force of tension.

If you want to print and make your own parallax beast, here is where you can print it from.  Because the faraway parts appear to move slower than the closer parts, it gives the illusion of turning its head.  It was inspired by the work of Jerry Andrus to  to celebrate  the Gathering for Gardner (Martin Gardner, that is), January 16-18, 1998.  Now we are using it for fun and for PHYSICS!
