IPC at Presbyterian School: March 2011

The Physics Project

Motion: what is it? How do we know when an object is moving? How can we measure motion? How does Newton's thoughts on motion differ from Einstein's? What forces are necessary to create motion? What is gravity?

These are just some of the questions that you should be able to answer as you complete this project.

The project has 5 components:

1.) Observations
2.) Research
3.) Design and Build
4.) Test
5.) Conclusions

You and your partner will document each component in a blog. You may use drawings, writings, photos, videos, and more. The more creative the better.

Wile E Coyte and Newton's Laws of Motion

Watch the video and on your blog write Newton's First Law and site a part of the video that portrays that law. Do the same with Newton's Second and Third Laws of Motion.
