Under your table, draw a picture of the rocket launch.

Position of Rocket Changes in Motion (Direction)

Speeds up or Slows down?



On your picture, label the following forces by using an arrow to show the direction they are acting on the rocket:

-Gravity-Friction-Thrust



Find a partner and compare your answers with one another.

HOMEWORK December 7, 2013


Write this in your agenda!

Your homework tonight is to come up with an example of a real-life example of force and motion.

Does not have to be science related!

Elaborate December 7, 2013


Find a partner and compare your answers with one another.

Man Jumps from Space

How is descending to (falling down) Earth different from ascending from (moving up) Earth?

1. Get out your Do Now sheet2. What is motion? How do you know when something is in motion?



Bill Nye: Motion (Only watch up to 2:40)

Add to your vocabulary on page 54.

Motion – the change in position of an object from a reference point caused by an unbalanced force.

Reference point – A location used to measure how far (distance) something has moved

Unbalanced force – a force applied to an object that causes it to move.


Reference Point & Unbalanced Forces December 3, 2013

Look at the pictures below. For each picture, talk with your shoulder partner about: 1) What is the reference point?2) What unbalanced force(s) are acting on the object?

Creating a Distance Time Graph December 4-5, 2013

Working with your group, you will construct a graph from a random scenario. (Procedures #1-2) Make sure you include all of the parts of a distance vs. time graph.

Time Limit: 25 minutes

At the end of 25 minutes, we will switch graphs and complete procedures 3-6. (10 minutes)

We will go over the lab and #7-8 together as a class.


White Board Practice December 4-5, 2013

Listen to the scenarios and draw the graph on your white board.



DO NOW:Date: December 6, 20136.8B Identify and describe the changes in position, direction, and speed of an object when acted upon by unbalanced forces.

1. Get out your Do Now sheet3. Q?: What is the total distance traveled by the object in the graph? What is the total time it took to travel?

Motion Detector Lab December 10, 2013

Directions:1. Before beginning, make sure cord is

plugged in to both calculator and motion detector, and that the white side of the motion detector is flipped out so that the circle is facing toward the moving object.

2. Turn calculator ON.3. Press blue APPS button.4. Select #2: CBL/CBR. 5. Press any key.6. Select #2: DATA LOGGER.7. Make sure the following options are

selected:PROBE: Sonic#SAMPLES: 100INTRVL(SEC): .15UNITS: mPLOT: RealTmeDIRECTNS: Off

7. Press GO…


8. You will begin to hear a “clicking” sound. This means the motion detector is collecting data.

YOUR ASSIGNMENT:Re-Create the graphs we drew in our notes on page 58. On page 59, explain how you created each of them.

If you create all four, ask Ms. Cedillo for a CHALLENGE GRAPH!



1. Get out your Do Now sheetQ: Calculate the speed of a car that has moved 500 miles in 10 hours.




Q: Calculate the speed of a car that has moved 500 miles in 10 hours.

Answer: Speed = Distance = 500 miles = 50 miles/hour

Time 10 hours


Today’s Agenda/Expectations December 11, 2013


1. Complete “Describing Motion – Speed” Lab in groups of 2-3.

2. Each group will need: 1 meter stick, masking tape, toy car (I have 2), calculator, 1 stop watch

3. You will have 30-45 minutes to collect data, 30-45 minutes to answer questions.

4. Completed lab DUE IN TRAY at end of class.5. Any extra time: work on homework! (Due Friday)

6. If you finish ALL OF THE ABOVE – read silently or work on other work.



1. Get out your Do Now sheetQ: A north-bound train went 75 miles in 25 minutes. What was the train’s average speed?

Get out homework and be ready to turn in!


Velocity December 13, 2013
