Trick Shot in Bowling Kit
In this investigation, students figure out if changing the speed of a moving object changes its energy in a collision.
The Trick Shot in Bowling Kit includes all the materials that students will need to design and carry out an investigation.
Each kit contains enough materials for six groups of students.
Materials:
- Track tower
- Track
- Large marble
- Small cups
- Cloth meter stick
- Number stickers

Plan and conduct an investigation to provide evidence of the effects of balanced and unbalanced forces on the motion of an object. [Clarification Statement: Examples could include an unbalanced force on one side of a ball can make it start moving; and, balanced forces pushing on a box from both sides will not produce any motion at all.] |
