Hopefully you were all able to get your cars moving with the lever arm this week. As you think about your cars, you might consider other modifications you’d like to make to them. Perhaps you’d like a different mass system, type of wheel or whatever. If you’d like to bring materials from home to add to your cars, that’s fine. Next week we should be ready to have a race-off and then I’ll add another challenge.
Watch this video on Developing and Using Models. Take notes in your notebook. Based on the video, create a model to explain one of the laws of motion. It could be a mental model, a two dimensional model or a three dimensional model.
