This is a hands-on Conservation of Momentum Lab for High School Physics classes. I have personally used this lab in on-level 9th/10th grade physics classes and IB/AP Level 11th grade physics classes. Required Materials: Marbles, Rulers, Books (to make a small ramp), Stopwatch What's Included: This lab includes background information about necessary equations and the principle of conservation of momentum, a procedure for conducting the experiment, two diagrams of the experimental set-up, data

Thank you for downloading my circular motion lab activity! Students will be using both an experimental and theoretical approach to determine the acceleration due to gravity during circular motion and comparing the two results. I have personally used this lab with IB Physics students and it is a fan-favorite! I have used this lab in both an in-person and a virtual setting. The lab can be completed pretty easily for learners at home! All they need is String (fishing line works best), Thin tube or

In this energy sources project, learners are asked to research different types of energy sources (geothermal energy, nuclear energy, solar energy, hydroelectric energy, tidal energy, wind energy, and fossil fuels). Students will research what the energy types are, and the advantages and disadvantages (in terms of sustainability, technological limitations, access, and controversy). Students have the choice to present their research as a Google Slides or PowerPoint presentation, physical poster,

This lab is intended for physics students who are familiar with 1-dimensional motion equations, the concepts of displacement, velocity, and acceleration, and introduced to projectile motion. Students will be using both an experimental and theoretical approach to determine the horizontal range of a projectile and comparing the two results.
