2. Warm Up: Rolling Marbles 3.9.71 Five friends built a marble tower. The track was designed so that the marbles would move down the track in a circular path. The track ended on the floor. Each friend predicted how he or she thought the marble would move when it rolled off the end of the track onto the floor. This is what they said. Magda: I think it will roll in circles.
Soledad: I think it will curve for a bit and then straighten out.
Allen: I think it will roll in one big curve.
Keira: I think it will roll in a straight line.
Rafael: I think it will zigzag for a little while.
3. Warm Up: The Drop 3.10.77 Randy has three different types of balls. Each ball is about the same size.
Ball 1 is a wooden ball. It’s mass is 28g.
Ball 2 is a golf ball. Its mass is 46g.
Ball 3 is a metal ball. Its mass is 110g. Randy held his arm out and dropped the three balls at the same time from the same height. In what order will the balls hit the floor?
Prediction A: Ball 1, then Ball 2, then Ball 3
Prediction B: Ball 3, then Ball 2, then Ball 1
Prediction C: Ball 2, then Ball 3, then Ball 1
Prediction D: All three balls will hit the floor at about the same time.
Prediction E: Ball 3 will hit first, followed by Ball 1 and Ball 2 hitting the floor at the same time
4. Warm Up: Apple on a Desk 3.8.63 Mrs. Canales pointed to an apple sitting on her desk. She asked her students to describe any forces acting on the apple. This is what some of her students said.
Which student do you most agree with? Explain your answer. Archie: The only force acting on the apple is air pressure.
Sam: There is one force acting on the apple. Gravity is the force that pulls on the apple.
Soledad: There are two forces: the desk pushes up on the apple and gravity pulls downward on the apple.
Misha: There are many forces acting on the apple; but it is the holding force in the apple that keeps it on the desk.
Tess: There are no forces acting on the apple because the desk stops any forces from acting on it.
5. Warm Up: Standing on One Foot Mario stood on his bathroom scale with two feet. He read his weight on the scale. He then lifted one foot. Circle what you think happened to the reading on the scale when he stood on one foot.
It showed an increase in weight
It showed a decrease in weight
His weight stayed the same
6. Warm Up At Forks High School, a particular science class is studying force and motion. They are very excited about this unit. During a class discussion this question is posed, “How do unbalanced forces cause changes in the speed or direction of an object’s motion?”
Read the responses and choose the one that you think is correct. Describe why you chose that answer.
Bella: Unbalanced forces cause changes in the speed of an object’s motion because they can overpower gravity.
Jasper: Unbalanced forces cause changes in an object’s motion because they are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction.
Alice: Unbalanced forces cause changes in an objects motion because they transfer energy.
Edward: Unbalanced forces are able to alter an object’s motion because the forces are not equal.
