Get into the swing of things. Pupils use a pendulum to demonstrate the conversion of potential energy to kinetic energy and back. After measuring the speed of a pendulum and compare it to the calculated theoretical speed, they...

In this harmonic motion worksheet, learners read about the difference between harmonic motion and linear motion. They are given the parts of harmonic motion, graphs of harmonic motion and equations to find the period and frequency of...

In this harmonic motion worksheet, students read about repetitive motion, the parts of harmonic motion, and graphing harmonic motion. Students then complete 5 matching and 20 fill in the blank questions.

In this harmonic motion and light worksheet, students review concepts such as identifying motion as harmonic, linear or wave motion, analyzing graphs of position vs. time and pendulum movement, answering questions about light and the...

In this motion activity, 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. Finally,...

Some background information about density and Newton's Laws of gravitation and motion assist pupils in the following experiment. The procedure will help them further their understanding of gravity, pendulums, and a drop-ball experiment....

In this harmonic motion learning exercise, students answer 9 questions about pendulums, a slinky and characteristics of harmonic motion. They identify the changes in waves as the amplitude gets bigger and interpret a graph of position...

Give every type of learner in your physics class an opportunity to demonstrate what they have learned throughout the year. From analyzing tables and graphs to evaluating diagrams and solving problems, there is an outstanding variety of...

In this waves learning exercise, high schoolers review the characteristics of harmonic waves including amplitude, cycle, phases, and friction. This learning exercise has 37 problems to solve.

Quiz your class with a review of the short stories of Edgar Allan Poe. These reading comprehension questions cover a breadth of ideas but aren't overly detailed. Questions come from The Tell-Tale Heart, The Masque of the Red Death, The...
