This interesting and interactive exhibit demonstrates how Newton's Laws of Motion impact the design and safety of roller coasters.

The energy transport phenomenon and amplitude are explored in this lesson. Questions are found at the end of the lesson to check understanding of the concepts presented.

Instructions for a science demonstration of Newton's first law of motion using common supplies. Learn how to turn the demonstration into an experiment.

Investigate Newton's first law of motion using just a set of wood blocks.

In this illustrated introduction of Newton's Laws of Motion, the ways in which motion can be explained will be discussed.

Through illustrated examples and practice problems, students explore the centripetal force requirement. So for an object moving in a circle, there must be an inward force acting upon it in order to cause its inward acceleration.

This lesson focuses on Newton's First Law: an object remains in the same state of motion unless a resultant force acts on it. If the resultant force on an object is zero, this means: a stationary object stays stationary; a moving object...

This is a glossary of terms and definitions used in Chapter 4: Force and Newton's Laws of Motion from the AP Physics online text.

During this lesson, young scholars have the opportunity to explore the life of Isaac Newton. Students use reference books and the Internet to investigate Newton's life. Following group discussion and individual research, young scholars...

This lesson introduces the concept of an inertial reference frame.

This resource features an applet that models the motion of a carousel ride at an amusement park to demonstrate centripetal force. The motion parameters can be modified and seen in the animation.

Do you need to review any of Newton's three laws? This website contains a video collection on Newton's Law from a physics course at East Los Angeles College. In twelve lectures, each law is explained with examples. Also discussed is...

This resource provides reproducibles that aide in student learning of force and motion. Also offers hands-on and cooperative learning activity ideas as well as an ESL/ELD activity. This resource is in PDF form; requires Adobe Reader.

Through an online slide-show format, learn about the physics of motion, including Newton's laws of motion.

Balance the force of gravity with the force of the expanding gasses created by mixing baking soda and vinegar. Create a soda bottle submarine that sinks to the bottom of the bathtub and then rises back to the surface.

An online exhibit investigating the sensations experienced by a cockpit pilot in a Russian aircraft. Focuses on G-forces and apparent weightlessness.

An easy to do activity that investigates Bernoulli's principle. The activity is presented in lesson plan format that meets NSES standards.

This lesson idea is great for the middle school student. The challenge is to construct a marble maze or marble coaster where success is based upon the slow continuous motion of the marble.

This lesson provides a mathematical relationship for momentum. It is 2 of 2 in the series titled "Defining Momentum Mathematically."

This lesson provides the learner with example problems on inertial and noninertial reference frames.

This site from NASA compares free falling motion to falling with air resistance. Discusses Galileo's experiment. Explains why we believe all objects free fall with the same acceleration.

Students explore all three parts of Newton's Laws of Motion by observing a spinning pop can.

Investigate how the application of various principles of physics can improve performance in sports. Perform experiments with Bernoulli's Principle and explore the sports-related inventions of a former physics teacher.

Students level up learning by completing Newton's Laws of Motion task cards including all levels of Bloom's taxonomy.
