Inquiry 2 – Evaluate Day 1 (11/13)

Friday, November 13th, 2009

We started the Evaluate (assessment) section (“Forces to Go; Forces to Stop”) today! In Part I, students will design, test and analyze the results from an experiment to see the net forces acting on a ball rolling down a ramp and coming to a stop.

In-Class Work: Part I: Out of Gas or Out of Momentum, Process and Procedure, #1

Homework:  Your step-by-step procedure for your experiment need to be finished by the beginning of class on Monday.

Learning Target: The motion of an object changes depending on changes in th enet forces acting on the object.

Part I of the Evaluate section is due at the beginning of class on Wednesday 11/18 or Tuesday 11/19 (depending on which day your class meets)!
