Force and Inclined Plane
Posted on January 1, 2011 by Arbor Scientific
Students will elevate the car in two ways: lifting directly and pulling up the ramp. They will find that it takes less force to pull the car up the ramp, but they do more work. The extra energy goes into friction in the system.This post was posted in Labs, Energy & Work and was tagged with force, car ramp, inclined plane, friction

Static Charge
Posted on January 1, 2011 by Arbor Scientific
Static charge (electrons, in this case) can be physically transferred from one object to another through friction. Students will use rubber, glass, fur and silk to create positive and negative charges, and investigate how these charges cause forces. An electroscope will be used to demonstrate charging by conduction and induction.This post was posted in Labs, Electrostatics and was tagged with friction, static charge, electrostatic charge, electrons, electroscope

Elementary Gravity & Friction Fun!
Posted on January 1, 2009 by Marcey Walsh
When exploring a big picture concept like FRICTION, it helps to be able to demonstrate and compare different examples. When you can combine interaction with a big visual...it rocks! Leaving a lasting impression that is easy to reference in future lessons!This post was posted in CoolStuff Newsletters, Force & Motion and was tagged with friction, Elementary Gravity, hockey, air puck
