The Function of Newton’s 3 Laws of Motion on a Rocket
Students spend time learning about Newton's 3 Laws of Motion, but can they correctly identify which one is being used when they see it? This lesson focuses on identifying each Law of Motion as a rocket launches. Students will learn the vocabulary neccessary for engineering a rocket, and then learn about each law and their function during a launch. They will then create their own bottle rockets and be able to define when each Law of Motion occurs during the rocket's take off.
