Motion and Force
All the main concepts in motion and force are covered in this presentation. Each slide is a great summary and will appeal to your students with a clean design and images that should seem relevant. Definitions of speed, displacement,...
Curated OER
Altitude of A Rocket
The first two slides set up the conditions for this "experiment on paper". A fun activity where students chose which of the rockets will fly higher in the situations given. Each slide is followed by an answer page and this presentation...
Curated OER
Speed
Fifth and sixth graders practice working in pairs to determine whether they can walk with constant speed. They test themselves, collect their data, draw graphs with their data collected, manipulate the data, and then draw conclusions...
Curated OER
Linear Motion: Speed, Velocity & Acceleration
Learners explore the concept of linear motion. For this linear motion lesson, students calculate distance and time in order to calculate average speed and velocity in the provided problems.
Curated OER
Unit II: Worksheet 2 - Velocity vs. Time Graphs
On the first of two pages, physics aces graph velocity versus time on sets of axes. On the second page, they look at graphs of position versus time and then draw velocity versus time on graphs right next to them. This is good practice in...
Curated OER
Unit II: Worksheet 3 - Velocity
Future engineers analyze the motion of Robin, the roller skater, as he moves along a sidewalk. They graph the position versus time for three different occurrences. Questions are asked about the resulting graphs, reinforcing the concepts...
Curated OER
Unit II: Worksheet 1 - Velocity
Beginning physics scholars interpret two graphs depicting position versus time. For each graph, there is a series of questions to answer. The exercise is basic, but beneficial. Consider using it as an assessment of understanding after...
Curated OER
Unit VI: Worksheet 3 - Force, Velocity, Displacement
Those who take this challenge will draw force diagrams and then calculate velocities and displacement. The problems are applicable to any general physics curriculum that covers motion. Add this to your collection of homework selections.
Curated OER
Acceleration and Average Speed
In this speed worksheet, students calculate acceleration and deceleration and compare speed with velocity. Students complete 6 matching, 8 fill in the blank, and 6 word problems.
Curated OER
Speed and Acceleration
In this speed and acceleration learning exercise, high schoolers solve 4 problems where they find the average velocity of a moving object, the acceleration of a moving object, the distance a moving object travels and the time a falling...
Curated OER
Position, Velocity & Acceleration vs. Time
For this motion worksheet, students use a graph showing the velocity of an object over time to describe the motion of the object and to determine the position of the object at different intervals. Then students create speed vs. time and...
Curated OER
Position, Velocity & Acceleration vs. Time Graphs
In this motion activity, students use a graph showing velocity vs. time to create a speed vs. time graph and an acceleration vs. time graph. Students label all critical values along the y-axis.
