Simple Machines, Fixed/Movable Pulleys, Work, Mechanical Advantage (Word & PDF)
This a a basic activity to demonstrate the mechanical advantage of pulleys. Students can see that a fixed pulley helps only by allowing you to pull down with gravity in order to lift an object up. Movable pulleys double the amount of line pulled and decrease the effort required to lift an object. Both pulleys add friction, thereby increasing the overall amount of work done.
See the list of supplies. You may be able to make substitutions for some objects, but you will need several pulleys, strin

Inclined Plane Lab | Apparent Weight & Normal Force at an Angle
In this hands-on, fully-editable investigation, students explore how the apparent weight (normal force) of a mass changes as the surface beneath it is tilted. By attaching a kitchen scale or lab balance to a clipboard and placing a mass on it, students can observe and record how the scale reading decreases with increasing angle. The lab reinforces the concept that the normal force is a component of gravitational force, and helps students visually and numerically connect their measurements to

Motion Diagram / Motion Map Activity: Monsters in the School
This is a Halloween themed self-paced "choose your own adventure" type activity were you are searching for various monsters in the school in order to capture them. This is done by analysing motion maps / motion diagrams. There are three motions featured in this activity: constant motion, increasing (speeding up), and decreasing (slowing down). After you determine what the motion is, you are asked to calculate where to put the "trap" in order to catch the monster.

Expansion, Contraction & Design: How Materials Respond to Temperature Changes
Materials expand when heated and contract when cooled, a phenomenon that has important implications for engineering, construction, and everyday life. Understanding expansion and contraction helps Grade 9 students in Alberta explore how temperature affects materials and how designers accommodate these changes in structures and products. Thermal Expansion occurs when particles in a substance gain energy and move more rapidly as temperature increases. This causes the material to take up more spac
