Week Two


In the lab, we began looking at graphs and trying to interpret their motion. We did an activity where my partner and I tried to figure out if the height of a slide would impact the speed of a rider. We did four different heights and three different timed trials. Our results proved that the higher the slide, the faster the rider goes. In lecture we talked about slides and how different things affect the speed of the rider. We discussed height, force, accesleration, etc.
The press book chapter was all about the force lens on motion. The text went over the basics of motion and gave lots of videos and examples of how motion and forces work. I feel like I learned a lot more about inertia than I initially knew. I think the videos and simulations were most helpful. I am a very visual learner, so seeing a true visual about it helps me to better learn it and understand. I feel like this helped me understand a lot more about it.
