October 10th - October 14th

Monday – October 10th
Final day to complete the UNIT TEST.
After unit test: internet activity sheet on the following:
a.       Phases changes of matter
b.      Acids and Bases web quest
Tuesday – October 11th
PPT Notes on Force:
Force: Any influence that can cause a change in an object’s motion
Force defined as:
       A push or pull that one object exerts on another.
       Has a size and direction.
       Measured in newtons (N).
Net force: The combination of all forces on an object
Balanced forces:
       Do not change motion.
       Cancel each other.
       Combine to produce a net force of zero.

Unbalanced forces:
          Do not have the same strength (size).
          Cause acceleration.


After PPT: Activity Lab:
Fun with physics (DUE no later than 16)0/13/1)
Homework: ACIDS AND BASES READING SHEET
Wednesday – October 12th
Tug of War Lab (Focus: balanced and unbalanced forces)
Thursday – October 13th
Quick check: Concept Map on Balanced and unbalanced forces
Practice on calculating the net force:
 Notes on friction:
       A force that opposes the sliding motion of two surfaces.
       Rule of friction – Friction always acts in a direction to oppose motion.
       Depends on the materials the surfaces are made from and the roughness of the surfaces.
Newton’s First Law of Motion:
An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.
Video: What would happen if we didn’t have friction?

Friday – October 14th
