1. Science Journey Session #3 Simple Machines How can you move that? Lynne M. Bailey CSD 9 Title IIB STEM Grant lbaile04@nyit.edu

2. Agenda Paperwork Introduction Protocols Online learning style test Objectives Pre-test Work & Machines Activities Analyzing devices Build a Catapult Exploring online activities and resources Post-test Reflection and classroom application Share-out

3. Introductions Paperwork done? How do you learn? http://www.educationplanner.com/ http://www.educationplanner.com/ Hurricane preparedness week is the last week in May.Hurricane preparedness week EQ preparedness quiz online at http://www.tvfr.com/ click on “April is Earthquake Awareness Month” and click on quiz http://www.tvfr.com/ Protocols – leave no tracks!

4. What Do Machines Have To Do With Work?

5. What Is Work? Amount of energy transferred by a force You are doing work when you use a force to cause motion Simply, when you cause something to move, that is work To measure the amount of work you do, multiply the force times the distance the object moved. Work= Force x Distance of object moved

6. What Are Machines? A machine is a device that does work Don’t increase the amount of work done, but make work easier How? By changing the force, the distance or the direction of the force

7. Simple Machines Inclined Plane (Ramp) Lever Wedge Wheel & Axle Screw Pulley

8. What Makes Them Simple? Requires the application of a SINGLE force to work

9. Let’s To the Video http://www.open- video.org/details.php?videoid=6216http://www.open- video.org/details.php?videoid=6216

10. Machine Stations Each group completes activity at one station Share results later Use materials to construct the simple machine Use group worksheet to record results Discuss ideas, predict results (hypothesis0, test (experiment), record findings, analyze results, and write conclusion How did this machine work? How did it make work easier?

11. More Hints Lever: Move fulcrum and load Plane – Vary slope; compare to lifting without machine Wheel & axle – How far does it go? Screw – What is a screw made of? How can you make one with these materials? Wedge – How are cuts different, similar? Pulley – compare effort with and without

12. Edheads Simple machines on line Go to www.edheads.org – click on Simple Machines and complete activitywww.edheads.org Use group worksheet to identify objects

13. Lever A bar that is free to move about a fixed point called a fulcrum Group report Three types First class lever – like a see-saw. One end will lift an object up just as far as the other end is pushed down Second class lever – like a wheel barrow. The long handles of a wheel barrow are really the long arms of a lever. Third class lever - like a fishing pole. When the pole is given a tug, one end stays still but the other end flips in the air catching the fish.

16. Inclined Plane http://weirdrichard.com/inclined.htm What simple machines are inclined planes? Group report

17. Inclined Plane Work Example W (Fd)= F x D Work = Your Effort Force = Object to be moved Distance = How far the object is moved http://home.earthlink.net/~dmocarski/chapters/chap ter5/ch5page.htm http://home.earthlink.net/~dmocarski/chapters/chap ter5/ch5page.htm 100 x 12’ = 400 lb X 3 feet Energy is conserved: Work Input = Work Output

18. Wedge What wedges do we use all the time? Group report

19. Screw What simpler machines make a screw? What everyday machines use screws? Group report Online demo at http://www.fi.edu/qa97/spotlight3/screwdemo.ht ml http://www.fi.edu/qa97/spotlight3/screwdemo.ht ml Archimedes screw at http://www.cs.drexel.edu/~crorres/Archimedes/S crew/ScrewAnimation.html http://www.cs.drexel.edu/~crorres/Archimedes/S crew/ScrewAnimation.html

20. Wheel & Axle Rolling along – how would we transport without them? Reduce resisting force by distributing it throughout the wheel or axle, and therefore make it easier to haul loads Group Report

21. Pulleys How Stuff Works: Block & Tackle (pulley) http://science.howstuffworks.com/pulley.htm Are there pulleys in the room? Group Report

22. Let’s Fling Some Marshmallows Using the materials provided, construct a catapult Can you design and build one that hit a target?
