1. 9.27.10-10.1.10 Force and energy

2. In 9.27.10 Energy Transformation Obj: we will describe how energy is transferred from the sun to us and then to the ground by writing in our journals. TEK 7.7B Chemical Energy to thermal energy Warm up: 1.What type of energy is the food we eat? 2.What type of energy is the sun?

3. In your journal please write at least half a page of how what you ate this morning is actually energy from the sun. Include: Radiant energy Photosynthesis Chlorophyll Digestion

4. With your partner discuss how the food you ate changed from chemical to thermal energy… Come up with one answer and write it down.

5. Recall: During digestion chemical energy is transformed into thermal energy. Summary: Explain how both plants and animals need energy to survive. OUT: look at the picture and tell me at least two types of energy the rock has.

6. In 9.28.10 Word wall OBJ: we will create a word wall to help further our understanding of vocabulary. TEK: 7.7 a,b,c Force, motion, and energy Warm up: I am a _____________________ I measure __________________ In units of __________________

7. Video clip quiz 1.T or F: objects at rest stay at rest is called inertia 2.T or F: Friction is the force that slows down motion of one surface over another 3.T or F: A car use 20% of its power to overcome friction of moving parts 4.T or F: Hovercrafts have more friction because of the air it thrusts down 5.T or F: Drag is when air slows down an object

8. YOUR WORD THE FRONT: The word must be written with at 2” letters Must have a picture on the front THE BACK: book definition Your definition Use it in a sentence

9. Presentation Explain your picture Read the book definition Read your definition Read the word in a sentence

10. Recall: I can use the word wall on tests Summary: Explain why you should learn your vocabulary. OUT: What was your favorite vocabulary word today? WHY?

11. In:9.29.10 Shoe Lab OBJ: we will use our shoe and a spring scale to explore force. TEK: 7.7A Force and work Warm up: How would you describe the word “force”?

12. Record you lab data in your through!

13. Shoe Drag Look at the materials. Think about force and friction and come up with a question/purpose for your lab. Materials:  A shoe  A spring scale  Aluminum foil  Piece of sand paper ** record the question in your through**

14. RESEARCH: Newton’s video clip Record anything you would like to remember!

15. Hypothesis Please write and IF… then… because… statement to answer your question. RECORD IN YOUR THROUGH! Example: If I drag the shoe across…. Then it will require …. Because of the amount of …

16. Create 3 the charts On the desk: Trial 1Trial 2Trial 3Average Force Shoe begins motion: Shoe while in motion: **Make the same chart for: “on aluminum” and “on sand paper” **

17. Procedures: 1.Select one show from your group 2.Use the spring scale to pull the shoe across the desk. Record the Newtons required to start the motion. Then record the number of Newtons to keep it in motion. 3.Repeat step 2 for aluminum foil. 4.Repeat step 2 for sand paper. 5.Answer the analysis questions.

18. Analysis questions: 1.Explain how the initial forces and the amount of force to maintain motion differ. (look at averages for each station) 2.Compare the effect of the aluminum to the sand paper on the shoe’s movement 3.What do you predict would happen if you added more mass to your shoe (like rocks inside of it)?

19. Recall: friction effects the amount of force needed to move an object Summary: Write the conclusion for you lab… it should answer your question and state if your hypothesis is correct. OUT: why do you think they have the friction strips on the stairs?

20. In 9.30.10 unbalanced forces Obj: we will distinguish between balanced and unbalanced forces TEK 7.7A Warm up: Define the words balanced and unbalanced.

21. Question Look at the materials and picture. Think about unbalance forces. Think about transformation of energy. Material  Marbles  2 rulers  Force

22. Research : Newton’s cradle video clip Newton’s first law of motion: An object at rest will stay at rest and an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by an unbalanced force. Unbalanced force: Will cause and object to speed up, slow down, or change direction.

23. Hypothesis: If…. Then… Because If I apply force to …. Then …. Because energy….

24. Newton’s cradle 1.At the station you will find two rulers taped to the desk and 4 marbles. 2.Place the two marbles a few inches from each other between the two ruler. 3.Take turns gently tapping one marble so that it rolls and hits the second one. Record your observations. 4.Place the two marbles together place third marble several inches away. Take turn gently tapping the single marble so that it hits the other two. Record your observations. 5.Experiment with other combinations of marbles and record your observations.

25. analysis 1.Describe what happened in the first trial? 2. Where did the force go? 3. What happened as you added more marbles? 4. What did you find out when using your own combinations?

26. Conclusion (write in your summary) Describe how the Newton’s first law of motion relates to your lab

27. Word wall Presentation Explain your picture Read the book definition Read your definition Read the word in a sentence

28. Recall: Balanced forces will not change the motion of an object. Summary: should be your lab conclusion Out: Draw an example of an unbalanced force. Write a sentence to explain it.

29. IN10.1.10 Quiz Obj: we will use critical thinking skill to take a quiz. TEK 7.7 A and B Warm up: Sally needs to calculate the density of a wood block. What tools would she need?

30. QUIZ! – True or False 1.During the process of digestion thermal energy is transformed into chemical. 2.An object at rest will stay at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. 3.An object in motion will stay in motion unless acted on by an balanced force 4.Unbalanced forces cause an object to speed up, slow down or change direction 5.Friction slows down the motion between two surfaces that are rubbing each other.

31. Net force The total amount of forces on an object.

32. Calculating net force 5000N + (–) 50 N = 4050N 5000 N 50 N

33. 10,000N + (-)1000N = 9,000N 10,000N 1000N

34. 100N + (-)500N = - 400N 500N 100N

35. VIDEO Kinetic EnergyPotential energy

36. Recall: Kinetic energy is moving Summary: explain why food would be potential energy Out: Use the words kinetic energy and potential energy to describe the process of digestion.
