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.

In part 1 of this investigation, groups were challenged to design for speed and collect data to find the fastest car in the class. Using those designs, part 2 will test the mass of a car vs the power
With this introductory lesson on Newton's Laws, student will have the opportunity to understand and explain Newton's 3 laws through a hands-on experience. This is an excellent way to introduce physics
