Motion in Two Dimensions

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet
This Motion in Two Dimensions lesson plan also includes:
  • Activity
  • Project
  • Join to access all included materials

Two activities employ the use of kinematic equations for determining projectile ranges. They both require the use of a toy dart gun. Included in this resource are both the teacher's guide and student laboratory sheets. This is an outstanding physics exercise on projectile and torque.
