Which phase of the EDP were you doing when you ran trail runs for your mousetrap car?

During this phase of the EDP you will work with your team to think about all the possible solutions.

According to Newton’s second law, the acceleration of an object depends on its

An object at rest will stay at rest until acted on by an outside force. An object in motion will stay in motion until acted on by an outside force. This is known as....

A water bottle sitting on a table would be an example of which law?

How far an object moves in a certain period of time. Measurement of how fast or slow something is moving.

If a mousetrap car travels 15m in 5seconds what would be its' speed?

What would be the average speed of a mousetrap car given the following data?

Trial 1- 10m/s

Trial 2-5m/s

Trail 3-6m/s

The UNIT of measurement for force

The speed of an object in a particular direction is known as...

Newton's law that states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction

the force that pulls objects down towards Earth's surface

also known as Law of Inertia, An object at rest stays at rest and an object in motion stays in motion with the same speed and in the same direction unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

the more force applied, the greater the acceleration, the greater the mass of an object, the less the acceleration
