In this Newton's law of motion worksheet, students review the concepts and equation associated with Newton's second law of motion. Students complete 7 matching and 5 true or false questions.

Young scholars observe washers of different weights roll downhill and observe what happens and what rate each of them travels. In this rate of travel lesson plan, students see the cylinders and discuss what happened after the race.

Eighth graders engage in an experiment which uses an inclined plane and balls of various masses to determine the effect a large object has on a small object. They study velocity, momentum, gravity and forces.

In this science worksheet, students examine how the universe is bound with the atomic particles and focus upon the findings of two historical scientists.

Eighth graders distinguish between and apply Newton's Laws. They take a quiz reviewing Kinetic and Potential Energy. Students explain that they have just demonstrated Newton's three laws of motion. They also explain what forces are...

Students study cosmic rays and the energy behind them.  In this atmospheric instructional activity students complete a cosmic ray telescope project. 

Students demonstrate direction of velocity of an object in circular motion. They discuss the mathematical formula, and demonstrate the formula using a string, rubber stopper and a target.

In this math worksheet, students find how a 1 kg bucket filled with 10 kg of water is lifted 10 m into the air. They set up an integral which gives the total amount of work done on the bucket and the water used for lifting it.

In this motion worksheet, students will match 5 physics vocabulary words relating to motion with their definitions. Then, they will review 9 statements of different motion scenarios to determine is the statement is true or false....

Students explore average speed, and graph distances and time.  In this speed and velocity lesson students complete a lab then calculate distances, acceleration and velocity and graph the data.

Ninth graders, after being given a unique scenario and a task sheet on Dead Man's Curve, calculate and explain the force needed to keep a car on a curve using a set of formulas and a geometric property of circles. They utilize and create...

Students give examples of each of Newton's three laws as they occur in everyday experiences. They visually represent and differentiate the difference between a direct proportion and an inverse proportion. Students explain how the...

Students use the equation to calculate the vertical distance an object fall during 1 second in 1/10 second increments. (The acceleration due to gravity on the Earth=a= 9.8 m/s2) Using a graphing calculator, students plot the path of a...

Students investigate how mass affects the speed of an object. In this physics lesson, students record data on the data table and graph results. They analyze findings and formulate a conclusion.

Pupils easure and record volume of water, then measure and record mass of soil. They explain the effects of the following in controlling erosion: Contouring, cover crop, strip cropping, reforestation, inter-seeding.

Students explore physics by conducting a class experiment. For this gravitational force lesson, students define several scientific terms associated with force. Students utilize a styrofoam cup and marbles to simulate a satellite crashing...

Students demonstrate rotary motion by practicing with gyrocopters. In this physics instructional activity students work in groups to construct a gyrocopter and explore how physics effect it torque and inertia.

In this Newton's Laws of Motion word search worksheet, students locate and identify 12 words related to Newton's Laws of Motion within the word search puzzle.

Students model the preparation needed for a soft-landing on a planet or object in space. They do this by packaging a raw egg with certain material, and dropping the egg from a given height to test the packaging effectiveness.

Students explain how a Frisbee flies, why it's shaped he way it is and how fast and how far the Frisbee can go.

Pupils explore the different kinds of treatments available for cancer and what their dangers or side effects are. They discover how often patients get treated, and how expensive the treatments are.

Students investigate Mexican holiday celebrations and compare them to American Christmas holidays. They conduct a Mexican Christmas Scavenger Hunt. The lesson uses a streaming video in order to engage students in the main objectives.

Ninth graders investigate motion. In this science lesson, 9th graders conduct experiments on objects to analyze motion and speed. They define motion in everyday life.

Students are involved in hands-on activities to determine how course conditions affect bobsled, luge, and downhill ski races.
