StudyJams - Force and Motion
DIRECTIONS:
1) Watch each of the videos to the left. 2) After each video, take the quiz. 3) When you finish the quiz... KEEP THE TAB WITH YOUR SCORE OPEN!!! DO NOT CLOSE THE WINDOW. (Otherwise, you'll have to take the quiz over.) 4) Come back to this page and click the next video. (Each one will open in a new window.) 5) When you're completely finished ((including the video and quiz below) raise your hand for Mr. Franklin to view your scores. |

Newton -vs- Norris Sure, you know him as the apples-and-gravity guy, but Isaac Newton was arguably the greatest scientist who ever lived! His life accomplishments read like a list of fake Chuck Norris facts! See if you can separate the outlandish lies from the even more amazing truths! |
FORCE
A force is a push or a pull. Force gives an object the energy to move, stop moving, or change direction. It has both magnitude and a direction. Newton's first law states that an object's velocity cannot change unless it is acted upon by a force. The four fundamental forces in the universe are: gravitational force, electromagnetic force and strong and weak forces at the atomic level. All other forces that we see in day-to-day life are based on the interactions of these four fundamental forces. These non-fundamental forces can be in form of centripetal force, friction, elastic force, tension etc.
