Students take a quick examine part of the water cycle, and the combined gas laws. The lesson lead them through the conditions necessary for cloud formation and allow them to create clouds in three different hands-on activities.

In this physics worksheet, students use the clues at the bottom of the sheet to complete the crossword related to pressure. There are 15 clues to solve in the puzzle.

Students investigate whether air exerts a force. In this physics lesson, students calculate air pressure using force and area information.

In this law of action and reaction worksheet, students build a bubble powered rocket using a film canister, paper and effervescing tablets to create bubbles inside the canister of the rocket. The pressure inside causes the canister to...

In this gas worksheet, students apply the gas laws by calculating the mass, volume, pressure, or temperature for given gas reactions. This worksheet has 13 word problems.

In this gas laws worksheet, students calculate volume, pressure, or mass for given gas reactions. Students calculate partial pressures for given gases. This worksheet has 17 problems to solve.

In this earth science worksheet, students check the accuracy of the weather forecasts in their area for a week. Then they complete the chart by recording the forecast for the week's weather and then recording the actual weather for that...

Students spend time examining the concept of water pressure. In groups, they research the amount of air pressure that is felt at different levels above sea level. Using a calculator, they calculate the water pressure given different...

Students demonstrates one of the few cases in which geologic solids visibly deform at room conditions. They suspend a weight on a thin wire over an ice cube to observe its effects over time.

Students investigate temperature and pressure with simple laboratory equipment. They use a handheld with sensors and probes to study temperature and pressure. Students explore the nature of gases with respect to temperature and are able...

Students complete an experiment in which they demonstrate that air exerts a force. In groups, they create their own siphon and define air pressure. They estimate the time it might take to siphon various amounts of water. They collect,...

Students brainstorm the causes of breakdowns in relationships, learn the main factors of interpersonal attraction and discuss these factors through learning from each other. Students also explore how the pressures of having a busy life...

Students observe and determine what their lung capcity is. They fill a two-liter bottle completely with water and place the cap back on. Students fill a dishpan half full of water. They place the cap-end of the bottle into the water in...

Students are introduced to drag. Then they summarize drag by saying that the drag is proportional to the square of the velocity. Students then solve problems an example of such a problem: Explain why swimming underwater is faster than...

Ninth graders compare the nature of forces of gravity, lift, thrust, and drag. They select proper materials for making a kite and attach a proper tail. Students interpret and summarize the observations made during the flight of the kites.

Students explore volume and pressure. Through an activity, students discover what happens in situations when volume is increased but no additional air is able to enter the enclosed space. Students create models and explain their...

Learners observe that air exerts pressure, that heated air expands and that cooled air contracts. After the demonstration, students engage in a question and answer session about what they saw.

Students learn first-hand the relationship between force, area and pressure. They use a force sensor built from a LEGO MINDSTORMS NXT kit to measure the force required to break through a paper napkin. An interchangeable top at the end of...

This lesson will present several example math problems utilizing the ideal gas law. It is 1 of 2 in the series titled "Ideal Gas Law Equation Examples."

Determine the difference in pressure that leads to the motion of masses in an hydraulic lift and the difference in height when the piston reaches equilibrium.

Be aware of the pressures around you, learn how to resist peer pressure, and keep a "pressure journal" to record and think about the ways in which you are faced with peer pressure every day.

Students can experiment at home with expanding balloons, dancing raisins, and pop cans that have been shaken up.

The ideal gas law is derived from the empirical gas laws. The ideal gas law equation of state is listed and discussed. The universal gas constant is explained and its value is listed in five different sets of units. Standard temperature...
