Investigating Newton's 2nd Law
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 effects on the speed of diverse objects.
2. An object's velocity can be ascertained by dividing the distance it travels by the time taken to cover that distance.
