Page 2– Tek 6.8 (A) compare and contrast potential and kinetic energy a) Create a fictional cartoon that shows the differences between potential energy and kinetic energy b) The comic strip needs a minimum of 4 slides or boxes. Page 3 – Tek 6.8(C) Calculate average speed using distance and time measurements a) Make a distance vs. time graph with two runners on it. b) Have runner A running at a constant speed c) Runner B should stop for at least 5 second before finishing the race d) Calculate the speed for both runners. (SHOW YOUR WORK) Page 4 – Tek 8.6 (B) be able to interpret a velocity graph a) Make a velocity graph b) Number the Y axis to 55m/s numbering by 5’s; then number the X axis to 15 seconds by 1’s. c) Draw a line accelerating by 5m/s from zero seconds to 5 seconds. d) Then the car has constant speed from 5 seconds to 10 seconds e) Finally the car accelerates to a stop Page 5 – Tek 8.6 (A) Demonstrate and calculate how unbalanced forces change speed or direction of an object in motion a) Draw an object that is not moving with balanced forces b) Draw an object that is moving with balanced forces c) Draw an object that is moving with unbalanced forces d) Draw a distance vs. time graph of step A e) Draw a velocity graph of step C Page 6 – Tek 8.6 (C) Describe Newton’s law of inertia, law of force and acceleration, and action – reaction a) Define Newton’s law of inertia b) Newton’s second law is F=ma. Explain the relationship between mass and acceleration. c) Draw a
