Physics 101: Physics Metrics

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

A half-hour introductory video on mechanics and the metric system was produced with beginning physicists in mind. Note-taking guides are provided, in addition to a follow-up metric worksheet. For the lab, learners construct paper frogs. There are no instructions beyond that, but you could hold a jumping frog competition to give your class practice in measuring distances.
