Curated OER
Position, Velocity & Acceleration vs. Time
In this motion instructional activity, learners use a graph showing the velocity of an object over time to describe the motion of the object and to determine the position of the object at different intervals. Then students create speed...
Curated OER
Position, Velocity & Acceleration vs. Time Graphs
In this motion worksheet, students use a graph showing velocity vs. time to create a speed vs. time graph and an acceleration vs. time graph. Students label all critical values along the y-axis.
Curated OER
Linear Motion: Speed, Velocity & Acceleration
Students explore the concept of linear motion. For this linear motion lesson, students calculate distance and time in order to calculate average speed and velocity in the provided problems.
Curated OER
Position, Velocity & Acceleration vs. Time Graphs
In this graphing worksheet, students determine the speed vs. time and acceleration vs. time plots based on the velocity vs. time graph given. Students complete 2 graphs.
Curated OER
A Classical & Relativistic Trip to a Black Hole
High schoolers calculate distance, velocity, acceleration and time on their fantasy trip to the black hold. They apply Newton's Laws of Motion and calculate circular motion. They discuss any questions that may arise.
Curated OER
Calculating & Graphing Using a Spreadsheet
Students use the lab apparatus to calculate the average velocity and average acceleration at several points and record the data. They use the spreadsheets to plot distance vs. time, velocity vs. time and acceleration vs. time graphs.
Curated OER
Speed & Velocity with Straw Rockets
Eighth graders explore calculating speed and velocity with Straw Rockets.
Curated OER
K.E. & P.E.
In this kinetic and potential energy instructional activity, students complete math word problems about kinetic and potential energy. Students complete 10 questions total.
Curated OER
Parametric Races & Slopes
Learners investigate the slopes and parametric equations. In this calculus lesson, students solve parametric equations with specific parameters. They relate lines and slopes based on the derivative of the equation.
