Scholar Start 11-18-13 Generals Can: apply newton’s laws of motion to real world situations . Using the following picture, describe which object exerts more force on the other. The bat or the ball? Why?. For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction- Newton’s 3 rd Law.

Scholar Start11-18-13Generals Can: apply newton’s laws of motion to real world situations • Using the following picture, describe which object exerts more force on the other. The bat or the ball? Why? For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction- Newton’s 3rd Law
Lab Expectations-Balloon Rockets • No Horseplay- don’t hit each other with the balloons, etc. • Be mindful of others around you- lots of motion going on so be aware of what’s going on! • Work hard and stay on task- lots to do in a little time! • Have fun! Science is fun! If we follow expectations, then we can have even MORE fun!
Unscrambling the PURPOSE WAIT! Check in! • What’s our target?? Where are we going?? How does what we’re doing, going to help you master the target!?? (think-pair-share)
Scholar Start11-19-13Generals Can: applynewton’s laws of motion to real world situations After picking up a student riding the school bus to school in the morning, the bus travels 2 km before stopping for 30 seconds to pick up another student. Then, the bus travels another 6 km where it takes 30 seconds to pick up another student. The bus then goes 2 km to school. The entire trip takes 10 minutes. What is the speed over the course of the trip? (Avg. speed = total distance / total time) A. 1 km/min B. 2 km/min C. 10 km/min D. 1m/min

Scholar Start11-20-13Generals Can: apply newton’s laws of motion to real world situations ROCKETS What do you know about: Write down everything you think you might possibly know about rockets- think about our lab from yesterday! TRY! Even if you don’t think you know anything! End
Lift off! Let’s look at this situation: • Draw a diagram showing the forces acting on the object. • What forces are acting in this system? In which direction?
Finding the acceleration of the rocket We want to know how fast the rocket was accelerating before it exited the atmosphere- This is the data we have: Exited the atmosphere here
Practice Time! Take a look at these problems and see how you do! • You may work with your table partner • Time limit of 15 minutes! • Work hard and stay on task! • Calculators in the caddies at the side of the room. 15 minutes End
Tonight’s Task • Complete Lab analysis- small groups • Conclusion- independent work If you have blonde/red hair, clean up the floor- everyone, push your chair in!
Scholar Start11-21-13Generals Can: apply newton’s laws of motion to real world situations When a rocket lifts off, the fuel is exerting a downward force and there is an equal but opposite force pushing upward. What other examples of this phenomenon do you see in your everyday world? Think creatively! There are tons!
Mapping the passage Reading and annotating this article! Gotta love NASA- Coolest organization ever! How can you draw connections to our current unit of study (motion and forces)? 10 minutes
Food For Thought… How does it relate to our unit and study of Newton’s Laws? Where do you see Newton’s Laws at work in the article? Where do you see it at work in other parts of our lives?
Write for five If you were to get a job with NASA, what experiments would you want to carry out in space? Why? How would you do it(scientific method refresh)? 5 minutes End
Scholar Start11-22-13Generals Can: Define and Calculate Acceleration I want every person to write down the top 3 things that you value the most in each of the following categories. When you’re finished, fold it in half and come drop it in the mailbox up front. Please be as thoughtful as you can when you’re responding! And put your name on it! Materialsitems- cell phone, favorite blanket from when they were a kid, an outfit, a pen, etc. Characteristicsand qualities- honesty, friendship, loyalty, caring, kindness, etc. People-who are the three most important people in your life? If you feel like it, tell me why. Memories- What are your three favorite memories?
Russian Plane Crash-Nov 18th 2013 Investigation Team-Help!
Weekend’sTask • Complete Lab Analysis & Conclusion • Finish Acceleration Worksheet/turn in Blue Eyes- paper/scraps off floor Brown eyes- push in stray chairs All others- make sure desks are aligned, calculators away.
