When you have to flow, you have to flow. The instructional activity introduces class members to microfluidic devices and their uses in medicine. They watch a short video on how the diameter affects the rate of flow. The worksheet has...

Do curves slow runners down or help their speed? Pupils simulate a 200-meter dash to calculate the angular and linear velocity of a runner. They then determine whether the runner is faster around the curved section of the track...

Get things moving with this extensive collection of physical science resources. Covering the fundamentals of measurement, graphing, lab safety, and experimental design as well as the specific scientific concepts...

An informative presentation covers motion, metric system, conversions, graphing of coordinates and lines, speed, velocity, and acceleration problems, as well as mean calculations. This is the first lesson in a 26-part series.

Simply find the slope to find the average rate of change. A short video provides the definition of the average rate of change. Using the definition, pupils calculate the average rate of change to solve problems that cover finding average...

So this is the real test? The resource provides the free-response questions from the 2011 AP Calculus AB exam. The six questions are split into two sections, calculator and non-calculator items. Several resources give teachers...

Take a trip back in time to examine angular velocity. Using the revolutions per minute, learners calculate the speed of a point on a 33 record. They compare the speed of a point on the edge of the record to the speed of a point closer to...

Delve into the middle of calculus. The resource is the second eBook of three that covers the complete calculus content. Seven chapters begin with integrals and different methods of integration before moving on to differential equations....

Take another look at the exam. A set of questions is a different form for the 2004 AP® Calculus BC free-response question section. The questions are evenly split into calculator and non-calculator sections. Pupils use their knowledge of...

Create trigonometric functions from circles. The first lesson of the module begins by finding coordinates along a circular path created by a Ferris Wheel. As the lessons progress, pupils graph trigonometric functions and relate them to...

By the end of this section, you will be able to do the following: Explain the relationships between instantaneous velocity, average velocity, instantaneous speed, average speed, displacement, and time; Calculate velocity and speed given...

By the end of this section, you will be able to define arc length, rotation angle, radius of curvature, and angular velocity; and to calculate the angular velocity of a car wheel spin.

Amelia is a researcher. She studies the speed of animals. Join her in Antarctica to help her figure these calculations.

This lesson provides the learner with example problems on calculating the average velocity of an object undergoing constant acceleration. It is 1 of 2 in the series titled "Practice w/ Average Velocity & Constant Acceleration."

This lesson focuses on motion including definitions, how to calculate the change in velocity and the average acceleration, and a link to an assessment.

[Free Registration/Login may be required to access all resource tools.] Outlines how to calculate the speed of a moving object.

Using these rate of speed problems practice figuring out either the distance, time or speed. Read the interactive quiz rules and then click on the "Begin" ticket. If you answer incorrectly you get one more chance to try again then you...

By the end of this section, you will be able to express the ideal gas law in terms of molecular mass and velocity; define thermal energy; calculate the kinetic energy of a gas molecule, given its temperature; describe the relationship...

Practice calculating average velocity and speed from word problems when an object moves in one direction.

Practice calculating average velocity and speed from word problems when an object changes directions.

This lesson focuses on how to calculate average speed and distance traveled. It also explains how to convert different units of measure and provides a link to an assessment.

Students must calculate the speed of a hockey puck based on the graph of force vs. time for the impact between the stick and the puck.
