Serc: Centripetal Force Activity

Curated by ACT

In this physics activity, students will simulate a race car on a circular track. Velocity, acceleration, and force vectors will be analyzed at various places along the track. As the students progress in the activity, prompts for student summaries with the teacher are given. The students are accountable for discussing their findings and defending them using their knowledge and understanding of vectors. Eventually, students analyze changing speed around the track and also motion around an oval track. Students will gather their information in written form and orally with the instructor.
