Elevators!
This lesson gives students another real life example of Newton's Second Law of Motion. Students will use force diagrams and Newton's Second Law of Motion to find their apparent weight as they accelerate in an elevator. Students will then go to an actual elevator and collect data with their cell phones in order to determine their apparent weight.

I use this egg drop/crash lesson as an introduction to Energy and Energy Transfer in physics. Students understand basic kinematics, but I generally conduct this lesson before projectile motion, but it
In this lesson, students will apply their knowledge from the prior day's lesson (Magnetic Marble Run Newton's Laws of Motion Day 1), to complete an Advanced Build of a Magnetic Marble Run. This lesson
In this engaging lesson, students determine the period of rotation for the flying pig toy using formulas derived throughout the circular motion unit.
