Ch6+Newtons+Laws

=**Chapter 6 Newton's Laws**= We are going to take everything we've learned this year, and begin to apply it to motion, and the technology behind moving things. What happens when something speeds up? How does a rocket speed up, and how does a rocket work? These are a few of the different concepts we will discuss in this chapter.

Newton's First Law- Today we are going to use a Rocket Simulation to explore what Newton learned about motion. Go to the following two websites and see if you can successfully dock the rocket. In the Teachers Folder, open a document called Rocket Simulation Questions, and answer the 5 questions about what you did.

Game 1:[|Pilot the Rocket]

Game 2: [|Dock the Rocket]

Game 3: [|Dock the Moving Rocket]

Newton's Second Law- We are going to finish our Lab from last Friday, where you used different hanging gold masses on a string to pull a car along 50 cm. While the car moved, you timed how long it took. We are going to finish this lab by finding out some more data, and then making it into a chart. Go on to your Teachers Folder, and open the document named Force Lab 2. Record your values, and answer the questions from that page.

When you are done with that, you can follow these steps to make a chart. First, you will want to open a new Microsoft Excel document (it's the big green x on your Doc)

Then once it is open, you should list all of your time values down one column (straight down vertically) and then In the column just next to that, list your accelerations (straight down vertically)

Then follow these directions in order to create a Graph, or a chart. You want to make an X-Y Scatter Graph, so make sure in step 4 you choose this option. Read below first, then if you have questions, ask.
