Investigating the Effects of Balanced and Unbalanced Forces: Lesson 3
by Robyn Yewell
In this lesson, students will be able to analyze and communicate evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of objects. They conduct research to provide evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object. They will work on model development and revision in this 3rd lesson in a series of 3.
