Sequence of Consequences!!

Sequence of Consequences

1st-Verbal Warning2nd- Asked to move out of group into a

group of one.3rd-Asked to leave the classroom and

go to another class to work and refocus-Student/Teacher conference

4th- Referral w/call home-removal to dean

Technology Expectations

No CELL PHONES!!

No Electronics!!

I will ask you to hand the device over and you can pick it up in the office after school….If it continues, I will have them call your parents to come and retrieve!!

Leaving class

Your area must be picked up and you are only excused when I say you can leave

Goals

What are you hoping to learn from this class this semester?

What are you still having problems with?

What can Mr. LePera do to make your semester a productive one?

Newton’s 1st Law of Motion: Life and Death before and after Seat Belts

Do Now:

Describe why different objects have different inertia?

Use Newton’s 1st Law to describe why using a seatbelt is necessary for safety in riding in cars.

Current Event

January 17, 2012HW: 3.2 PTG #1-7, Skip 4, pg 274 Due Mon

Learning Objectives: Explain how Newton’s 1st Law applies to

collisions between objects Apply the relationship between pressure,

force and area to different situations Process skill: Make a prediction based on

the question using both the independent and dependent variable

Success Criteria: Define Newton’s 1st Law Describe how inertia relates to mass and

velocity of an object Explain the forces in a collision, Identify the

relative magnitude and direction Explain how seatbelts work according to

Newton’s 1st Law Describe how different widths on a seatbelt

makes it more/less effective and why Explain the relationship between pressure,

force, and area

Pressure!

What is pressure?

How do you calculate pressure?

Force per area, where force is perpendicular to the surface.

P=F/AP=pressure (pascal)F=Force (Newtons)A=Area (m2)

Essential Questions

Use Newton’s 1st law to explain why a passenger keeps moving when a vehicle suddenly stops.

What evidence do you have from your experiments that collisions at higher speeds will have greater effect on the passenger?

How does what you learned in this section help you design a safety device for a collision even though you don’t know the exact circumstances of the collision?
