This science lab can be used in any of the science disciplines because it is going to help students learn how to read a meter tape. Students will learn what the Magnus Effect is and how to demonstrate the Magnus Effect by "flying" a hollowed-out "Bic" pen across the classroom. Students will also learn how to create a spreadsheet and then add a formula that will automatically calculate the average of their pen flight distances. I use this lab at the beginning of the year to get students excited about science as well.

If you are a science teacher and don't have a water rocket lab, you should begin.  This experiment is the highlight of our year.  This is a doc for a higher-end physics class and contains math calculations.  Students have restrictions as to rocket design.  We launch twice.  On the first day, we build, launch, and calculate distances.  The next day we do the say, but his time they should be making repairs to see if they can get it to fly further.

In this physics experiment, we will investigate and compare the traction of different shoes on a flat surface. By measuring the static friction and the coefficient of gravity, we aim to determine which shoe provides the best traction. Students conduct the experiment and draw a conclusion based on the collected data.

A Google Doc link is provided if you want to modify or share the lab with your students.

This worksheet is designed to help students strengthen their understanding of momentum and impulse in physics. Through a series of engaging problems and calculations, students will explore concepts such as momentum, force, velocity, and kinetic energy.

Engaging with these problems will enhance your comprehension of momentum and impulse concepts while honing your problem-solving skills. Have fun tackling the challenges and mastering the principles of physics!

The answer key is provided as well.

This physics lab worksheet focuses on exploring the concepts of collision and momentum using a simulation. The lab is designed to engage students by interacting with a digital simulation of two balls slamming into each other. Students will make predictions, and analyze outcomes. Students will develop a deeper understanding of momentum, velocities, and the differences between elastic and inelastic collisions. It is suitable for middle school and high school physics or physical science classes.

Students will be engaged in hands-on experimentation and discover the principles of motion and collision through a series of captivating lab exercises.

Lab Setup: To begin, set up the lab by placing one end of the track on two reading books and the other end on a pencil, creating a slanted track. The angle of the track will determine the direction of the marble movement.

This video discusses and demonstrates how levers are used to reduce the amount of work and energy required to lift something.   This would be great to show your students during a lesson on levers in your physics classroom.  Archimedes's work and experiments are discussed as well.

Discover how air pressure generates wind in this Study Jam video. Students will learn key vocabulary terms such as air pressure, wind, barometer, convection, downdraft, updraft, high pressure, low pressure, Coriolis Effect, temperature, water vapor, and density.
