  1. Unit One Culminating Activity Velocity, Acceleration, Force, Mass, Work, Power, and Mechanical Advantage

  2. Standards • SPS8. Students will determine relationships among force, mass, and motion. a. Calculate velocity and acceleration. • b. Apply Newton’s three laws to everyday situations by explaining the following: • Inertia • Relationship between force, mass and acceleration • Equal and opposite forces • c. Relate falling objects to gravitational force • d. Explain the difference in mass and weight. • e. Calculate amounts of work and mechanical advantage using simple machines.

  3. How will you be graded for this activity? • Participation: 100 point daily grade • Completion of each lab: 300 points lab grade • Summary: 100 point test grade • DUE ON FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 4TH . THERE WILL BE A LETTER GRADE DEDUCTION FOR EACH DAY THAT IT IS LATE. • If you miss a lab, you may get fake data from me, and you have to answer the questions on your own.

  4. How will you complete this Activity? • Groups of 3 minimum. • Everyone writes down their own information. You are not allowed to watch and copy later. • I will be asking you during the lab what you are doing and why you are doing it. You must be able to answer those questions. (quote the standards to me) • You will limited to 4 class days to completely finish these labs.

  5. The Inclined Plane Lab (100 points) • Read the Inclined Plane lab. • Copy the table and graph from the lab. • Complete the lab by following the directions exactly. • Clean up and organize your lab area. • You have until the end of the day tomorrow to complete this lab. • If you complete this lab early, start the Pulley Lab.

  6. The Inclined Plane Lab Pointers • READ THE INSTRUCTIONS! • Measure the WEIGHT of the blocks • Record the mass of the pan with the standard masses (in grams) • Hold the ramp in place if it won’t stay still • Use graph paper to complete the graph • Begin the PULLEY LAB if you finish early

  7. The Pulley Lab (100 points) • Read the Pulley Lab. • Complete each part of the Pulley Lab. • Answer the analysis questions with the lab. • Clean up and organize your lab area. • You have until the end of the day on Tuesday, November 1stto complete this lab. • If you complete this lab early, start the Lever Lab.

  8. The Lever Lab (100 points) • Read the Lever Lab procedures. • Complete the Lever Lab using a 20.0 g mass. • Use a meter stick sideways for your arm, and use a ??? as a fulcrum. • Answer all of the questions in the Lever Lab. • You have until Wednesday, November 2nd to complete this part of the lab. • When you finish, begin writing your Summary.

  9. Summary (100 point test grade) • Write a 5 paragraph essay answering the following questions. • Use all of the vocabulary words provided in your essay, and underline the words when you use them. • Your Summary must be unique! NO copying from your team members! • Fill your Summary with specific examples and DATA from your lab. • You must turn this in by Friday, November 4th.

  10. Summary (100 point test grade) • How were ALL of Newton’s Three Laws demonstrated in the Simple Machines Labs? • How did you calculate work and mechanical advantage in the Simple Machines Labs?
