Review 1st, 2nd and 3rd Laws:
Friction Lab
The students through this science lab came to the understanding of how friction works, and will understand that different surfaces allow for
different amounts of friction.
Students looked at ten different surfaces and predicted which surfaces will have the most and the least friction.
Push and Pull Lab
As the air rushes out of the balloon, it creates a forward motion called THRUST. Thrust is a pushing force created by energy. In the balloon experiment, our thrust comes from the energy of the balloon forcing the air out. The number of pumps of air we put into the balloon effects the speed and distance because of the added pushing force/thrust created by the air.
Gravity Lab
It is because of gravity that objects fall to earth! We will try to trick gravity by using physics to makes water in a glass work against gravity.
