Acceleration Lab Mrs. Anna ward James Martin MS
Do now!!! • Acceleration is _______________________________. • The unit for acceleration is _____________________. • Isis was riding the Intimidator at Carowinds. As the car starts to plummet down the first drop, it starts at 2 m/s downward and is at 35 m/s downward by the end of the drop 3 seconds later. Calculate the roller coaster’s acceleration. • Danielle was walking to bus at a rate of .5 m/s towards the bus lot when she saw her bus starting to pull away. She began to run at a rate of 3 m/s in 1.5 seconds. Calculate Danielle’s acceleration.
Announcements and Agenda • Notebook Check tomorrow • Today: • Practice Problems • Create Lab Expectations • Acceleration Lab
Practice Problems • INDEPENDENTLY COMPLETE THE PRACTICE PROBLEMS SHEET. DO NOT WRITE ON THE SHEETS. TURN IT IN AND YOU WILL BE ALLOWED TO BEGIN THE LAB.
EXIT TICKET • Niyah is riding a bullet train in the South of France. The train leaves the station and travels through the city at a rate of 35 m/s. Upon entering the countryside, it accelerates to a rate of 140 m/s in 60 seconds. What is the train’s rate of acceleration? • Evan is taking an airplane to visit his grandmother in Kentucky. When the plane lands, it decreases from a speed of 160 m/s to 20 m/s in 20 seconds. What is the deceleration? (Remember…you need the final and then in the initial speed to determine the change in velocity.
