Design a Course with Friction
by Lisa Barnard
In the second part of this lesson, students will now test how friction can change the speed of a RC car. Students will first test the RC car on three different surfaces of their choice and time them with a stopwatch. Students will again be able to calculate the mean in their data. Finally students will use their knowledge of friction in order to design a course to slow down a RC car.
