The Dawn Mission: Ion Rockets and Spiral Orbits
In this ion rocket and orbits worksheet, students read about the spiral orbit the Dawn spacecraft took due to its ion rocket motor. Students solve 3 problems including finding the path taken by the spacecraft, determining the total path...
Curated OER
Crash Test Physics
Students design and test balsa cars. In this crash tet activity, students design and build their own cars to specifications. They explore the physics of motion and vehicle crash safety.
Curated OER
Orbital Mechanics
Twelfth graders examine the misconceptions of Newton's laws of motion. In this motion and gravity lesson students interpret data and see the effects of gravity.
Curated OER
Eggs On My Head
Students apply math skills using formulas to solve a Physics equation. Working individually, students create an equation to calculate the drop rate of an egg from a tower so it will hit a specified target, the teacher. Students test...
Curated OER
Projectile Motion
Twelfth graders experiment with a projectile that is launched horizontally after a demonstration and small discussion about two pennies, one dropping from a table top and the other being slide off the top and hitting the ground at about...
Curated OER
Physics: Motion and Disease Lesson B
Students study motion and apply it to daily life. In this laws of motion lesson plan students participate in an activity in which they act like health officers and complete some equations.
Curated OER
Sars
Students discuss the Sars outbreak in 2003. In this biology lesson plan, students research the effect of the outbreak to the world. They create a public announcement about the topic.
Curated OER
Activity Two Teacher Page: Explosions
High schoolers identify variables that affect the system, and specify which variables are independent and which are dependent.
Curated OER
Ptolemy, Copernicus, & the Church
Students determine the difference between a geocentric universe and a heliocentric universe.
Curated OER
Let's Play Some Ball!
Pupils review horizontal and vertical shifts of a parabola and how they effect a specific quadratic formula. They play a basketball review game in which they try to find the right quadratic equation for a given problem in order to earn...
Curated OER
Study of Projectile Motion using Straw Rockets
High schoolers design and launch their own rockets. In this experimental lesson students launch their own rockets and record the various angles and distance that they go. Each student has time to redesign their rocket and have a...
