Load (weight) What question can be answered by doing this experiment? ________________________________________________________________________________ What is the best way to get accurate results? ____________________________________________________________________________________________________ Repeat the experiment several times. How does load affect motion? Compare your results with other groups.
Tire Note: After the rubber band is wound & before this car moves, it has potential energy. When it is moving, it has kinetic energy. How can we get this car to move forward? Wind the rubber band several times over the back axle. The more times you wind the rubber band the farther the car will go. The tires are important because they provide traction (friction) for the car so it can move.
Front tire Front tire Measuring Distance and Speed Start Finish What metric unit should be used to measure the distance a K’NEX car moved? _________________ _________________________________________ What should be used to measure speed of a vehicle? ____________________________________________________________________________________ Centimeters, always measure from the same point. Measure the distance and the time it took to go that distance.
Kinetic energy have Objects in MOTION have have Direction Speed can change because of described as described as Forces east, west, north, south, right, left, up, down fast, slow, faster, slower like friction & gravity
FORCES are pushes or pulls like like gravity friction is due to the is the makes rubbing of objects pull of objects toward earth things slow down
Simple Machines are wheel & axle need inclined plane less force to move an object pulley lever wedge
Simple Machines Wheel and Axle A wheel and axle makes it easier to move an object across a surface. It reduces friction between the object and the surface. are wheel & axle need inclined plane less force to move an object pulley lever wedge
Simple Machines Inclined Plane An inclined plane makes it easier to move an object to a higher place. are wheel & axle need inclined plane less force to move an object pulley lever wedge
Simple Machines Pulley A pulley lets you use your own weight to help lift an object. are wheel & axle need inclined plane less force to move an object pulley lever wedge
Simple Machines are Lever A lever can help make it easier to move an object. wheel & axle need inclined plane less force to move an object pulley lever wedge
Simple Machines are Wedge A wedge makes it easier to split an object apart. wheel & axle need inclined plane less force to move an object pulley lever wedge
