Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Curve Ball
In this activity, students collect data for a bouncing ball using a motion detector. They analyze the data and attempt to find a model for the height of the ball as a function of time.

Texas Instruments: Collecting Ball Bounce Data
Many aspects relating to the motion of a bouncing ball can be modelled mathematically. The first stage in modelling the motion is to collect some data. The Calculator Base Laboratory or CBR is a motion detector that can be connected to a...
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Stopping Distances
In this activity, students learn to build a model for the total distance required to stop a moving vehicle.
Texas Instruments
Texas Instruments: Height and Time for a Bouncing Ball
In this activity, students' will record the motion of a bouncing ball using a motion detector. They will then model a bounce using both the general and vertex forms of the parabola.
