Force
In this activity, students will use motion and force sensors to analyze the relationships between force, mass, and acceleration.
Air Drag
In this activity, students will use motion sensors to observe that an object in free fall's velocity is related to the net force on the object. Additionally,...
Impact Force
In this activity, students will use force sensors to measure forces produced during a collision. Then, they'll use their data to determine the best material...
Momentum
In this activity, students will measure and compare changes in momentum for an object during elastic and inelastic collisions.
Peak Force
In this lab, students will observe the magnitude and consistency of the force required to cause structural failure.
Area Under a Curve
In this activity, students will use rectangular approximations to find the area under a curve.
Impulse Momentum
In this activity, students will compare the change in momentum before and after a collision to the force experienced during the collision (impulse).
Understanding Pressure
In this lab, students will use pressure and temperature sensors to determine how temperature, volume, and gas affect pressure.
Mole-to-Moles Ratio
In this lab, students will determine the ideal amount of sodium bicarbonate to completely react with 10 mL of 0.50 M acetic acid. Students will use these...
Variable Volumes
In this lab, students will use pressure and temperature sensors to determine the volume of gas needed to fill three differently sized plastic bags.
