Activity 1: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Projectile Motion - Drag

Take a deeper look at the effects of air resistance when firing a projectile from a cannon. Determine which factors influence the drag force. Adjust the drag coefficient and see the projectile change shape. Control the mass and diameter of the projectile, and set the altitude. Watch the velocity and drag force in real time! Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 2: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Forces and Motion: Basics - Motion

Explore the forces at work when pushing against a refrigerator, crate, or person. Create an applied force and see how it makes objects move. Measure the speed, and learn how to apply a force to speed up or slow down the object. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.

Activity 3: Simulation Game. Estimated duration: 10 min

Forces and Motion: Basics - Net Force

Stage a game of tug of war between the red team and the blue team. Add pullers to the rope to increase the force, and discover the relationship between the left force, right force, and net force. Determine if a force is balanced or unbalanced. Note: Students will automatically move through this simulation after 10 minutes of playtime.
