Curated OER
Qualitative Examples of Conservation of Mechanical Energy
Instructions for series of six activites, a reading of scientific literature, and a choice of six assessments await you in this physics resource. Well-written plans guide you in guiding your pupils to experiment with levers, pulleys,...
Curated OER
Motion in Two Dimensions
Two activities employ the use of kinematic equations for determining projectile ranges. They both require the use of a toy dart gun. Included in this resource are both the teacher's guide and student laboratory sheets. This is an...
Curated OER
Typical Numeric Questions for Physics I - Motion
Seven pages with 33 multiple choice questions about motion make up this learning exercise. Calculations must be performed in order to choose the correct answer. Physics majors will solve for angles, displacement, acceleration, speed, and...
Curated OER
Typical Numeric Questions for Physics I - Work and Energy
A total of 29 word problems furnish practice in solving for work, energy, and force. A few of the questions display diagrams to help learners visualize the systems, and all of them list five choices from which they select the correct...
Curated OER
Projectiles
Students measure the angle and distance of an arc. In this projectile instructional activity, students observe arcs created by water guns, bow and arrows, and slingshots, then work in small groups and use protractors and strings to...
Curated OER
Projectile Motion
Students determine the angle of launch that will give a projectile its greatest range. In this projectile motion lesson, students recognize that the motion of a projectile results from the combined horizontal and vertical velocities....
Curated OER
Investigation Projectile Motion
In this science worksheet, students take part in an experiment that examines the motion of a projectile and measures things like velocity or direction.
Curated OER
Projectile Motion Lab
In this physics activity, students model the position, velocity and acceleration using mathematical formulas and a computer program. Then they interpret the parameters in each of the models. Students also complete the experiment and...
Curated OER
Projectile Motion II
Learners explore projectile motion and kinematics in two dimensions. They determine, using an adjustable projectile launcher, what angle makes a projectile go the highest.
