I was going to dive into vectors next, but rumor has it I might be getting a touch table from Templeman Automation the first week of October, so I decided to hold off until after Camp Wing.
After Monday’s exam, we will be exploring the forces and accelerating motion. We will finish our adventures with Galileo and the idea that objects of different masses will accelerate towards Earth at the same rate. Hufflepuff already started to play with this, dropping bowling balls and LEGO balls. Another group played with carts of various masses, and even a LEGO frictionless cart using the PASCO bearings.
From there we will explore accelerating systems with unequal forces, friction, and Newton’s 3rd Law. Then a brief break for for Camp Wing.
