Physics learners make magic with inertia! By pulling paper out from under a stack of blocks or batting a rubber ball into motion, physics scholars' eyes will be opened! Don't think that this lesson is only fun and games; plenty of...

In this kinematics review worksheet, students complete 50 multiple choice questions on average speed, velocity and acceleration.

In this dynamics worksheet, students calculate speed, acceleration and forces to complete 50 multiple choice questions on kinematics.

Students interpret a variety of motion graphs. In this physics instructional activity, students calculate the speed and acceleration of objects using numerical data from graphs. They apply what they have learned to solve real world...

Students explore physics using interactive resources. In this physics lesson series, students solve problems involving vectors, forces and kinematics. They draw vectors and its components.

Young scholars graph motion using an online interactive website. In this physics lesson, students interpret different motion graphs. They describe the man's motion as shown on the graph.

In this kinematics, work and energy worksheet, students solve 16 problems given a diagram of a moving ball that has been launched. Students find the trajectory of the ball, the velocity of the ball and its potential and kinetic energy at...

Students research articles about science technology and society. In this science and technology lesson, students answer questions about an article they chose. They share what they learned with their peers.

Twelfth graders watch a video on linear motion. For this physics lesson, 12th graders write down formulas and notes. They take a quiz after watching the video.

Students explore projectile motion and kinematics in two dimensions. They determine, using an adjustable projectile launcher, what angle makes a projectile go the highest.

Students study calculus and kinematics by viewing videos.  In this vectors lesson plan students complete several problem sets regarding velocity and acceleration after viewing a video.

Students calculate the speed of string racers. In this physics lesson, students measure the time in several trials and get the average. They graph their results using a spreadsheet.

Students design their racer then trace their designs onto Styrofoam tray and athen attache a balloon to a strw which is attached to the "car" to construct a rocket propelled "car." They collect data to determine the speed and the...

High schoolers analyze the motion of an object as it moves through a complex path that includes rolling, falling, and bouncing. They answer questions related to what forces are acting at any given time.
