Future physics majors look at a diagram of a marble rolling across a railing. They sketch motion maps and force diagrams. They determine the horizontal range of the marble as it falls to the floor. Then they double the height and repeat...

Physics learners studying force and acceleration practice solving eight problems with this assignment. They calculate acceleration and deceleration, net force, and distances required for stopping a moving object. Kinematics equations and...

This is a smart approach to displacement concepts. Physics learners analyze a motion map and then draw qualitative graphs for time versus displacement and time versus velocity. Get your class thinking critically through the use of a very...

A chart with eight rows makes up this handout. The columns are labeled with two graphs ("x vs. t" and "v vs. t"), a written description, and a motion map. One cell in each row is filled in, leaving the rest for your class to complete....

Make motion maps, draw graphical representations, and determine displacement. These are the activities included in this physics assignment. This is a great review of velocity, position, acceleration, and displacement concepts.

In this acceleration worksheet, students construct a motion map and a qualitative and quantitative graphical representation to determine the motion of a car after it applies its brakes. This worksheet has 8 problems to solve.
