Transportation of the Future
by Donna Brunjes
What will the transportation of the future look like? What types of engineering or technology will vehicles feature? These Physics lessons explore both established and alternative forms of transportation and enable students to identify the advantages and disadvantages of different engineering technologies. A special focus on Newton's Laws of Motion as well as electrical, gravitational and magnetic forces is included in these lessons which culminate in students developing and creating a vehicle prototype and landscape.
