Take out your morning article and begin working silently. When you finish, you may take a book from the bookshelf.
2
Agenda: Homework and flash cards due Friday. 1. Explain the motion of [figure a] in the picture. Be sure to describe the reference directions. 2. What is the reference point in this example?
3
7.P.1.2 Explain the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces acting on an object (including friction, gravity and magnets)
4
Vocabulary Words 1. unbalanced force 2. balanced force 3. mass 4. friction 5. gravity 6. inertia 7. velocity 8. newtons 9. magnets 10. force 11. frame of reference
5
Balanced Force Balance forces are two forces acting in opposite directions on an object, and equal in size. Anytime there is a balanced force on an object, the object stays still or continues moving continues at the same speed and in the same direction.
6
Unbalanced Force 1. When two forces acting on an object are not equal in size. 2. Unbalanced forces cause: a still object to move, an object to speed up or slow down, a moving object to stop, a moving object to change direction.
7
Magnet An object that is surrounded by a magnetic field and that has the property, either natural or induced, of attracting iron or steel.
8
newton (symbol: N) is the International System of Units (SI) derived unit of force.

Notebook Title: Speed and Motion Testable Question: How can you measure speed? = Raise your hand to ask questions during the lab = stay positive and work as a team!
10
Motion Definition: A change in position over time. The ball moved from position 6 to position 3. 123456789123456789
11
Speed Definition: The rate of motion. (how fast motion happens) Speed is the measure of how fast something moves or the distance it moves, in a given time. Ball 1 moved 5 meters in 2 seconds. (Slower speed) Ball 2 moved 10 meters in 2 seconds. (Faster speed)
12
Calculating Speed speed = distance ÷ time Units: meters/seconds (m/s) miles/hour (mph) kilometers/hour (km/h)
13
1.If something travels 50 miles in one hour, what is its speed? 2.If something travels 4 meters in one second, what is its speed? 3.If something travels 10 miles in two hours, what is its speed? = 50 miles per hour = 4 meters per second = 4 m/s = 5 miles per hour 50 miles 1 hour 4 meters 1 second 10 miles 2 hours
14
CORNELL SYTLE QuestionNotes What is speed? Speed is the measure of how fast something moves or the distance it moves in a given amount of time. (RATE of MOTION) How are speed and position related? (hint: the library is 2 blocks away or the library is 5 minutes away) Speed and position both deal with where an object is.
15
QuestionNotes What is the formula used to calculate speed? Speed = distance divided by time S=d/t
16
Practice Calculating Speed 1.A man runs 200 m in 25 s. What is his speed? 2.If you travel 100 m in 50 s, What is your speed? 3.A women traveled 500 m in 20 s. What was her speed? 4.A wheelchair racer completes a 100 meter course in 20 seconds. 200 m / 25 s = 8 meters per second 100 m / 50 s = 2 meters per second 500 m / 20 s = 25 meters per second 100 m / 20 s = 5 meters per second
18
Speed Triangles! Flip over your note sheet to see how they work! D ST ÷ x
19
1. Speed = _______ _______ S D T ÷ x Distan ce Time
20
2. Distance = _______ _______ S D T ÷ x Spe ed Time
21
3. Time = _______ _______ S D T ÷ x Distan ce Spe ed
22
4. Distance = 10 meters, Time = 1 sec. Speed = S 10 m 1 s ÷ x
23
5. Distance = 50 meters, Time = 10 sec. Speed = S D T ÷ x 50 meters 10 seconds 5 m/s
24
6. Distance = 80 miles, Time = 2 hours Speed = S D T ÷ x 80 miles 2 hours 40 m/h
25
7. Distance = 80 miles, Speed = 40 miles/hour Time = 40 miles/hour 80 miles T ÷ x
26
Sometimes, speed questions are word problems. Just set up your speed triangle! 1. Joe jogged for 1 hour. He ran 6 miles. What was his speed in miles/hour? 2. Alex jogged for 2 hours. He ran 4 miles. What was his speed in miles/hour? 6 miles / 1 hour = 6 m/h 4 miles / 2 hours= 2 m/h
27
3. Jose threw a ball. It traveled 50 meters in 5 seconds. What was its speed in meters/second? 4. Ms. Reynolds was going 60 miles/hour on the freeway. How far did she get after 1 hour? 5. Ms. Wright was going 60 miles/hour on the freeway. How far did she get after 2 hours? 50 meters/ 5 seconds= 10 m/s 60 miles x 1 hour = 60 miles 60 miles x 2 hours = 120 miles
28
Can you calculate speed with speed? Use speed triangles to solve practice problems. The first person in each table to get all correct will win a prize! Work independently (silently). Raise your hand if you have a question. Be on task!
29
Exit Ticket 1.Speed = ________ _________ 2.A train travels for 3 hours. It goes 90 miles. What was its speed? 3.A car is going 60 miles/hour. How far will it go in half an hour? 4.A boat is going 25 miles/hour. How long will it take for it to travel 100 miles? 5.1 mile/minute = ___ miles/hour
