Students study the properties of the frictional force between two surfaces in contact. They inspect various phenomena in nature where friction plays an important role and demonstrate

Students investigate road surface and calculate speed. In this algebra lesson, students analyze the roughness of a road and calculate distance and speed based on friction. They relate friction and energy to speed.

Students review what force. In this science lesson, students determine which surfaces are rough and which are smooth by observing how an object moves on each surface.

In this friction worksheet, students conduct an experiment with their hands and lotion to simulate how an engine needs lubricant to reduce friction. Students then answer 3 questions.

In this conservation of energy worksheet, students answer 17 questions about energy, potential energy, kinetic energy and work. They match the conservation of energy equations with 7 given situations.

Students experiment with variety of materials to investigate, develop inferences, and differentiate between concepts of motion energy and heat energy, and the part played by friction in the transformation process.

In this physics 240:10 worksheet, students calculate the speed and distance as presented in the given word problems. Students apply their understanding of Hooke's law to answer the questions provided.

Get the ball rolling with this upper-elementary science unit on forces and motion. Offering over three weeks of physical science lessons, this resource is a great way to engage the class in learning about simple machines, friction,...

Second graders examine matter, what it is and what the different states are. In this matter lesson students view The Magic School Bus Meets Molly Cule and answer questions.

Learners work in small groups to create a power point illustrating Newton's Laws of motion as related to a sport of their choice.

Students discover the factors affect friction. Students, working in lab pairs, complete various experiments in order to discover what factors effect the amount of frictional force a block has as it is pulled across different surfaces.

In this physics rules worksheet, students complete questions and answers in order to review physics rules with each other. Students complete 26 questions.

Students investigate the forces present in a rotating body. In this physics lesson, students calculate centripetal force using a mathematical equation. They answer a quiz and writing prompt at the end of the lesson.

Why do markets operate inefficiently when the world's resources are so limited? Review the various types of unemployment that exist and why some resources, especially human resources, go unused.

In this friction worksheet, learners will read about fluid friction and examples of fluid friction. Students will also explore the role fluid lubricants have in reducing friction between two surfaces. Then learners will answer two short...

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

Students are told that the weight of a car is equal to its mass multiplied by the acceleration due to gravity. When a car is at react on a horizontal road, there must be a normal force with which the road pushes up on the car to keep it...

In this motion worksheet, students compare two graphs showing a bug's distance traveled over time. Students calculate the average speed of the bugs and determine which bug was traveling at a constant speed. This worksheet has 1 short...

In this forces and machines worksheet, students will review vocabulary associated with forces including friction, inertia, and work. Students will also explain how simple machines help to do work easier. This worksheet has 10 matching, 6...

In this forces worksheet, students will review the different types of forces and how forces are measured. This worksheet has 9 fill in the blank, 1 short answer, and 11 multiple choice questions.

Most have felt a static electricity shock, but what actually causes it? Scholars observe, develop a hypothesis, experiment, and learn about static electricity. Through multiple short writing samples, they describe static electricity in...

In this reading comprehension worksheet, students have 12 minutes to read a text entitled "Pulp Friction" and answer comprehension questions based on the article. Students answer 10 multiple choice questions.

In this online interactive English vocabulary skills worksheet, students answer 6 multiple choice questions which require them to read a sentence and determine the meaning of words or phrases in the sentences....

Young scholars describe how to recognize a force, define balanced and net forces, state Newton's first law of motion, explain why friction works, state Newton's second Law of Motion, and explain why the direction of force is important.
