Review the circular motion activities with your table partners and neighbors. Discuss any answers you disagree on or are confused about. Be prepared to ask questions!
Learning Goal: I can
- ...explain the difference between rotating and revolving.
- ...describe centripetal force, give examples, and relate it to Newton’s Laws of Motion.
- ...describe the difference between centripetal force and “centrifugal force”.
- ...describe and apply Newton’s Law of Universal Gravitation to various situations.
- ...use Newton’s Law of Gravitation to explain weightlessness, ocean tides, and black holes.
Today:
- Discuss results of the activities.
- Work/collab time
Assignment:
- Circular Motion & Gravitation Packet.
- See me ASAP about a retest.
