Students use string, wire, weights, and a stopwatch to build pendulum clocks. In this pendulum clocks lesson plan, students use the pendulum clocks to investigate weather, climate, force, and motion.

Students explore physics by participating in a science activity in class. In this flight properties lesson, students identify Bernoulli's principle of flight and his theory of statics and motion. Students conduct a demonstration by...

Students calculate the speed, motion and distance of a projectile. In this geometry lesson, students obtain measurements while calculating velocity. They graph their results and make predictions.

High schoolers are told that any object moving through a fluid (air, water, molasses, etc) experience a drag force which oppose the motion. They are given the summarized version of drag which is proportional to the square of the...

In this math worksheet, students examine the geometric figures assuming the density is uniform throughout. Then they take notice of the rotational motion potential for each. Then they apply this knowledge to answer questions as directed.

In this math worksheet, students use the theory of quantum mechanics to determine the relative position of objects and how motion could affect them.

Students explore Newton's Laws of Motion and how momentum is conserved. In this physics lesson, students observe experiments in which various items collide. Students draw conclusions as to how "momentum" defined as "mass X velocity"...

Students experiment with inner tubes, weights, flasks, and pistons to demonstrate the gas laws. For this molecular motion lesson, students demonstrate pressure as a force per area. They conduct an experiment to show the relationship...

Third graders explore simple machines. In this simple machine lesson students experiment with motion and force. Students have hands on activities and resources are provided.

Second graders investigate the process that creates wind. In this wind instructional activity, 2nd graders create a wind diagram. Students write an essay to accompany their diagram.

Get first hand experience in rocket building and motion through an easy-to-follow picture and word-based directions sheet. Here, learners build a paper rocket by wrapping and taping paper strips around a pencil, and then...

In this motion worksheet, students review Newton's Laws of Motion including terms such as inertia and net force. Students complete 11 matching, 7 fill in the blank, and 7 problems to solve.

Students identify Newton's Laws of Motion. They students explore Newton's Laws of Motion and apply the second law with a classroom activity. The videos will provide visual examples of the effects of gravity while riding on a roller coaster.

Students study straight line motion and motion due to gravity.  In this motion lesson students analyze several experiments. 

Students, after reading an explanation from a NASA Web-based textbook, demonstrate an understanding of the text by applying it to the calculations involving the motion of an airplane.

Students, after reading an explanation from a NASA Web-based textbook, demonstrate an understanding of the text by applying it to the calculations involving the motion of an airplane.

In this motion graphs worksheet, students learn about how motion of objects can be described using a graph. Students then answer 10 fill in the blank, 10 short answer, and 5 problems to solve.

Students explore the concepts of force and motion by creating a video.  In this physics lesson, students are assigned one particular aspect of force and motion to investigate and work in groups to create a video that will be...

Students solve problems involving graphs. In this calculus lesson, students relate harmonic motion to velocity. They discuss the derivative and the effect on the functions created.

Students analyze the motion of a particle along a straight line. For this precalculus lesson, students use the TI to analyze the position of a function as they graph and visualise the function. They calculate the distance and...

Students investigate the rigid motions of reflection, rotation, translation, and dilation. This investigation be accomplished through classroom instruction and exploration using Geometer's Sketchpad.

Ninth graders complete a unit of lessons on the history of our knowledge of celestial objects. They conduct Internet research, plot the motion of a planet, construct a model of the sun's apparent motions, and create diagrams of the solar...

In this forces worksheet, high schoolers explain how a car's motion is affected by different forces. This worksheet has 3 short answer questions.

In this Kepler's Law worksheet, students answer questions given a diagram of the orbits of two planets about the sun. They use Kepler's Three Laws of Planetary Motion to answer the questions.
