In this magnetic forces and particle motion worksheet, students use the equation for the radius of a spiral to answer 3 questions about charged particle motion.

In this magnetic forces and kinetic energy worksheet, students use the formula that relates the speed of an electron in a plasma cloud to its energy to find the speed of 6 different plasma cloud electrons. They answer 5 questions that...

Sixth graders explore and discuss the effectiveness of magnets in different situations. In this math lesson, 6th graders discuss rate and graphs after exploring with magnets using different restrictions on the magnets. They analyze their...

Third graders are introduced to the concepts of force and motion. In groups, they travel between stations to analyze the effect of force and motion on various objects. They research how various careers use these concepts as well.

Sixth graders investigate averages and statistics by discovering magnet strengths.  In this magnet experiment lesson plan, 6th graders utilize different magnets and attempt to attract different materials to them.  Students...

In this sunspots and magnetic fields worksheet, students read about the satellite images taken showing 'loopy' patterns from solar gases and the magnetic fields on the sun. Students solve 2 problems including finding the volume of a...

Ninth graders explore physics with springs and strings. In this force and motion lesson, 9th graders rotate through four stations exploring how various springs stretch and bounce, and how mass and length affect a pendulum's swing. They...

For this rotation of celestial bodies worksheet, students determine the speed of the sun's rotation and they determine the number of days it takes the sun to rotate once at the equator. They identify the geometric factor that causes...

Students discuss how weight is directly related to gravitational force on a planet. Students then choose Space Traveler as companion and compute how much their guide weighs on various planets, based on each planet's relative surface...

In this black holes worksheet, students use a formula for time dilation which causes delays in events that occur near the black hole. They solve 6 problems using the equation.

Explore the world of vectors, by finding answers to questions like what are vectors, what are scalars, what is the difference between scalar and vectors, the magnitude of a vector, operations on vectors, and properties of a vector.
