Patterns in Linear Motion

Physicists become Olympians in a competition using centripetal force. They ride a bicycle to comprehend relationships between linear and rotational motion. If you have an old-fashioned record player, it can be used to help pupils...

In this physics worksheet, students model the acceleration, velocity, and position of a cart moving up an inclined plane. They take data and determine a pattern in the data. Students also describe their findings and create an illustration.

In this motion worksheet, students determine the distance traveled, the acceleration, and velocity of different objects. This worksheet has 11 problems to solve.

In this physics worksheet, students model the position, velocity and acceleration using mathematical formulas and a computer program. Then they interpret the parameters in each of the models. Students also complete the experiment and...

In this physics review worksheet, students review vocabulary words associated with speed, acceleration, Newton's Laws and simple machines, work and energy, magnetism, electricity, and harmonic motion and light. This worksheet has 92...

In this motion worksheet, students calculate the initial angular acceleration, and the angular speed before and after impact for different objects. This worksheet has 3 problems to solve.

How does a single photon show a phase shift? Using the interference pattern created by light traveling through a double slit, the resource asks whether the interference pattern would still show if only one photon of light is sent at a...

Examine cause and effect through the lens of physics. A video lesson describes how the reality of cause and effect does not apply to physics. Rather than following cause and effect, particles simply change in a predictable pattern.

It's all uphill from here! Scholars examine the pattern of random particle motion up a staircase. The simulation shows how the linear increase in energy corresponds to an exponential decrease in particle concentration.

In this circular motion worksheet, students determine the magnitude of a coin's linear velocity and the magnitude of its acceleration. This worksheet has 14 problems to solve.
