NEWTON’S 2ND LAW

How did the Standard Deviation Bars on your graph affect the confidence you

had in your experimental results?

Why? (Explain)

Questions?

HAVE OUT

What are some things skydivers do to reduce the force

they feel when they land?

Middle Column:Review what you know about the size and

direction of forces when two objects interact.

Far Right Column:Use Vector Sketches and labels to PREDICT the

size of the forces you will feel in each scenario relative to just standing still on the ground

MAKE PREDICTIONS

DO NOT injure yourself for Science.

CAUTION!!!

Discuss what you felt

THEN

Record your results using words (middle column)AND

Vector sketches w/ labels (far right column)

EXPERIMENT!!!

Review what we have learned about forces so far by completing each force related statement using the

words or symbols in the box

We will discuss this in 5-ish minutes
