Newton's 2nd Law Lab (Uses PhET Simulation)

Description

If you are looking for lab that addresses HS-PS2-1, you've come to right place! This lab uses a PhET simulation to collect force and acceleration data while keeping the mass constant. Students then graph their data, find the slope, and eventually derive Newton's 2nd Law!

This lab specifically addresses evidence statement, "Students organize data that represent the net force on a macroscopic object, its mass (which is held constant), and its acceleration (e.g., via tables, graphs, charts, vector drawings)."

NGSSHS-PS2-1

Analyze data to support the claim that Newton’s second law of motion describes the mathematical relationship among the net force on a macroscopic object, its mass, and its acceleration. Assessment is limited to one-dimensional motion and to macroscopic objects moving at non-relativistic speeds. Examples of data could include tables or graphs of position or velocity as a function of time for objects subject to a net unbalanced force, such as a falling object, an object sliding down a ramp, or a moving object being pulled by a constant force.
