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.

In this lesson students learn about the simple machine screw, specifically the Archimedes Screw, and engineer a device that can lift a marble.
This lesson is an activity to show how projectile motion and many other motions in nature fallow a parabolic curve. Students will manipulate that knowledge and analyze data using small play tanks to
Investigative Phenomenon: When subjected to identical forces, a golf ball and a table tennis ball exhibit distinct movement. In this lesson, students discover: 1. Equivalent force may result in varied
