Week 32: Forces and motion

I. Write the correct number in the parenthesis

1. A push or pull of something ( ) Motion

2. A change in the position of an object . ( ) Reference point

3. A place or object used to determine ( )Gravity

if an object is in motion .

4. A contact force that opposes the ( ) Force

motion of an object .

5. The force that pulls objects toward ( ) Relative motion

each other .

6. The change in one object position ( ) Mass

compared with other objects.

7. Measures how much matter is ( ) Balanced force

in an object.

8. Is the same size and work in opposite , ( ) Weight

directions, so they don't make an object move .

9. Measures how strong the force of ( ) Friction

gravity is on an object .
II. Find the words in the alphabet soup
 Lab:
III. Observe how objects reach the bottom of the ramp in
different angles
Materials: Sandpaper , tape , cardboard , waxed paper pattern for a ramp angle
protractor , eraser , toy car , angle scale

1. What do you think is going to happen?

Is going to fall

2. What happened?

Trial Angle when Object Reached Bottom of Ramp

Cardboard Wax paper Surface Sandpaper Surface

Car Eraser Car Eraser Car Eraser

Time 3 13 2 17 5 22

Angle 7.5 50 5.5 65 15 70

3. Conclusion:

Higher attitude and lower friction makes thr object slide easier

III. Cut the angle scale for your Lab activity.
