Instructional Ideas

  • Work with the physics teachers to provide additional problems students can solve using inverse trigonometric functions
  • Have the class graph the periodic problems to get a better understanding of the situation

Classroom Considerations

  • It is beneficial if scholars understand physics as it relates to ramps, but it is not necessary

Pros

  • Answer key provides the steps to show how to determine the solution
  • The scaffolding show the forces on an object in different orientations

Cons

  • None
