For this Euler's method worksheet, students use Euler's method to determine one-second time intervals in a rate problem. They explore functions to estimate rate changes in small time intervals. This two-page worksheet contains...

Students conduct toboggan time trials to investigate the variables that have the greatest effect on toboggan speed. In small groups, they develop a hypothesis to test and perform three trials on the toboggan run for each variable.

Learners plan a driving trip using maps. Working in pairs, students receive a destination card and must create a plan for arriving at their destination using only a map. Trip plans should include, mileage, distance and time...

Students calculate a toy car's velocity and acceleration. In this force and motion lesson, students build ramps and attach a dropper to a toy car, which is released down the ramp. Students calculate and graph velocity and acceleration...

Students explore the concepts of velocity, acceleration, distance and football. They collect data on the velocity of a football and they determine the distance and height of a football when it is thrown. Students compare their findings...

In this motion learning exercise, students will write in motion vocabulary words including velocity and speed to complete 7 statements. Then students will calculate average speed and velocity in three short answer questions.

In this distance/rate/time problem, students find the amount of time a person could walk a given distance. Students are given the time it takes to walk on a moving walkway (both with and against the flow of traffic).

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.

Students determine how speed is measured. In this physics lesson, students design an experiment to find out if the robot's drive wheel size affects its speed. They collect data and discuss results.

In this math worksheet, students examine the position of an object and then use the formulas to determine its path over time. Then they apply the information in order to determine the traveling path of an asteroid in space.

In this math worksheet, students investigate how time is related to the concept of increasing or decreasing velocity. Then they consider times and answer the questions of whether the velocity is changing.

Learners create and build cars to race in class. In this physics lesson, students calculate the speed using distance and time information. They evaluate their design and make adjustments when needed.

In this road trip problem, students examine information about road trip and determine the constant rate necessary to travel a predetermined distance.   This one-page worksheet contains 1 problem.  The answer is provided.

In this speed worksheet, students use dominoes to measure the average speed of rows falling over. Students make a line graph to show the relationship between the length of the domino row and the time. Students answer 8 questions about...

Sixth graders graph acceleration and practice using the metric system. In this physics instructional activity, 6th graders take turns timing each other as they walk 15 meters. Students then chart and graph their data using the metric...

In this earthquake worksheet, students will study a graph showing the travel time and distance traveled for primary and secondary waves of an earthquake. Students will use this graph to complete 8 short answer questions.

In this similar triangles worksheet, students use proportions to solve for the missing sides of similar triangles. This two-page worksheet contains 16 multi-step problems.

This lesson entails the viewing of two videos to get an overview of force and its application. The lesson covers how vectors use force in real-world situations.

A two-hour final exam covers a range of physics topics related to electricity and magnetism. It employs a variety of methodologies for assessing your physics learners' understanding and mastery of these concepts. You will need to review...

In this calculus worksheet, students solve differentiable functions, determine the inverse of a function and identify the derivative. This one-page worksheet contains seven multi-step problems.

Young scholars calculate the inverse variation, and speed given the formulas. In this algebra lesson, students investigate properties of conics, focusing on the hyperbola. They identify the distance between the directrix and other...

Students move with control in general space. They move with three different spatial distances and tempi. Students demonstrate understanding of the distance and speed of particles in matter: solid-close and slow; liquid-medium distance...

In this speed of light worksheet, students read about Danish Astronomer ole Roemer and his discovery of the speed of light. Students complete 4 short answer questions based on the reading.

Students investigate how Global Positioning Systems work and how and why GPS receivers make errors. They graph data points and apply estimation and prediction to real-life GPS situations, discuss time delay, and complete a worksheet.
