Description

This lab is VIRTUALLY NO PREP! You will need a computer for each student or you can have students share a computer. You can use this to introduce the concepts, however I typically use it as a review. You can also pick and choose from the activities, I have the students do it in class during a 1 hour 45-minute period and most students finish with a few students that can finish for homework. I also include a KEY for easy grading and prep. This product is a total of 5 activities using the PHET University of Colorado Boulder Interactive Simulations that has 100’s of simulations to choose from.

THIS LAB INCLUDES THE FOLLOWING CONCEPTS:

Density, buoyancy, buoyant force, calculating density, rolling friction, fluid friction, constant speed, gravity, Law of Universal Gravitation, balanced forces and unbalanced forces.

NGSS Standards:

Science and Engineering Practices

Asking Questions and Defining Problems

Planning and Carrying Out Investigations

Constructing Explanations and Designing Solutions

Cross Cutting Concepts:

Cause and Effect

Systems and System Models

NGSSMS-PS2-4

Construct and present arguments using evidence to support the claim that gravitational interactions are attractive and depend on the masses of interacting objects. Examples of evidence for arguments could include data generated from simulations or digital tools; and charts displaying mass, strength of interaction, distance from the Sun, and orbital periods of objects within the solar system. Assessment does not include Newton’s Law of Gravitation or Kepler’s Laws.

NGSSMS-PS2-2

Plan an investigation to provide evidence that the change in an object’s motion depends on the sum of the forces on the object and the mass of the object. Emphasis is on balanced (Newton’s First Law) and unbalanced forces in a system, qualitative comparisons of forces, mass and changes in motion (Newton’s Second Law), frame of reference, and specification of units. Assessment is limited to forces and changes in motion in one-dimension in an inertial reference frame, and to change in one variable at a time. Assessment does not include the use of trigonometry.

NGSSMS-PS2-1

Apply Newton’s Third Law to design a solution to a problem involving the motion of two colliding objects. Examples of practical problems could include the impact of collisions between two cars, between a car and stationary objects, and between a meteor and a space vehicle. Assessment is limited to vertical or horizontal interactions in one dimension.
