1. Motion The technology of moving fast

2. Motion Describe this motion. Use as much detail as possible.

3. Going for speed! Top speed of a running human?

4. Quick History of Motion! Top speed of a running human? 24 km/h (for brief period)

5. Model T Ford 1909 Model T Ford - top speed of????

6. Model T Ford 1909 Model T Ford - top speed of………….70 km/h And this was considered frightening!!

7. Breaking the Sound Barrier US Marine Fighter Jets 2004 How fast is that?

8. Breaking the Sound Barrier More than 1188 km/h !! How fast is that?

9. Thrust SSC British supersonic car Forced forward by 2 jet engines How fast?

10. Thrust SSC British supersonic car Forced forward by 2 jet engines How fast? 1228 km/h

11. What are the implications of speed? Pros (Thumbs UP)Cons (Thumbs DOWN)

12. Physics / Science helps! How? ….discuss…and see next slide for 1 example

13. Midnight Sun – solar car -Created by University of Waterloo

14. Midnight Sun – solar car -Created by University of Waterloo - top 5 finishes in solar car races in North America

15. Midnight Sun – solar car -Created by University of Waterloo - top 5 finishes in solar car races in North America - what is it’s top speed?

16. Midnight Sun – solar car -Created by University of Waterloo - top 5 finishes in solar car races in North America - what is it’s top speed? 117 km/h !!

17. What are the implications of speed? Pros (Thumbs UP)Cons (Thumbs DOWN)

18. Interesting Facts Thrust SSC used 55L / km travelled vs. common car uses 0.07 L/km Solar car uses no gasoline.

19. Why did we do this? The big idea is that technology of moving has social an environmental impacts – both positive and negative
