[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] How to calculate acceleration from force and mass, and force from mass and acceleration.

Conduct an investigation collaboratively on the effect of force applied on an object to produce data to serve as the basis for evidence, by using fair tests in which variables are controlled and the number of trials are considered.

Three complete tutorials on vectors and two dimension forces and motion. Lessons include informational text, interactive activities, animations, and quick, interactive comprehension checks along the way.

Learn how pushes and pulls relate to theconcept of force and motion.

A lesson where students construct a roller coaster and test it under different conditions to learn about force and motion.

This lesson focuses on forces and elasticity. Forces are responsible for changing the motion of objects. If more than one force is present, the shape of an object can also be changed. A link to a test is provided.

[Free Registration/Login Required] This lesson explores forces, and how they react to the world around us. It also discusses Newton's Laws of Science.

By taking a look at the energy of motion all around us, students learn about the types of energy and their characteristics. They first learn about the two simplest forms of mechanical energy: kinetic and potential energy, as illustrated...

In this article the concept of vibrational motion and its relationship to waves is introduced.

This tutorial investigates the motion of a mass on a spring and how a variety of quantities change over the course of time. Such quantities will include forces, position, velocity and energy - both kinetic and potential energy. Take the...

In this lesson, you will learn about position vs. time graphs and velocity vs. time graphs and how to use them to solve problems.

This super simple activity for kindergarten-age students requires no materials and can be done inside or outside, or both and explores forces and motion.

Students watch video clips from October Sky and Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone to learn about projectile motion. They explore the relationships between displacement, velocity and acceleration and calculate simple projectile...

This lesson from the Glenbrook South High School gives a nice review and detailed explanation of velocity, speed, distance, displacement, and acceleration. A good introduction to the "language of Kinematics."

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Newton's second law of motion and the effects of force and mass on acceleration. Direct and inverse relationships between force, mass and acceleration.

Egg drop competition is a popular activity to reinforce the lessons in force and motion. In the activity, the students are asked to design a vehicle to carry the egg safely when dropped from a height of 10 feet (about 3 m) or more....

Video that uses an elevator in motion to describe the relationship among weight, gravity, and relative motion. [3:36] Includes a short quiz and a list of additional resources to explore.

This lesson introduces the concept of action and reaction forces and explains how they can be observed. It is 1 of 2 in the series titled "Interaction Between Objects."

This lesson introduces the learner to the concepts of distance and displacement and explains how to differentiate between the two. It is 3 of 3 in the series titled "Introduction to Distance and Displacement."

This lesson introduces the learner to the concepts of distance and displacement and explains how to differentiate between the two. It is 1 of 3 in the series titled "Introduction to Distance and Displacement."

This lesson begins with a demonstration of the deflection of an electron beam. Students then review their knowledge of the cross product and the right hand rule with sample problems. After which, students study the magnetic force on a...

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] In this online activity young scholars will learn about Torque and how to calculate Torque in various situations.

Students investigate a variety of applications of circular motion principles to the world of sports, and use Newton's laws to mathematically analyze such motions. The emphasis will not be upon an investigation of the details of every...
