Eighth graders use Newton's Laws of Motion to assist a troop in making a winning car in the Pine Wood Derby.

Learners experiment with the laws of motion. In this motion lesson, students explore Newton's Laws of Motion. Learners work in groups experimenting with different objects and observing different types of motion.

Third graders examine the concept of work as the movement of an object through a distance. They define gravity and determine what type of work is caused by gravity. They measure how far an object is moved by a force. They make a...

In this lesson, young scholars make predictions about falling objects of different sizes and masses to learn about gravity and air resistance. Includes audio vocabulary list and extension activities.

A demonstration/lab idea for determining the numerical value of the universal gravitation constant using a torsion balance.
