Hot Wheels

Alasha, and conner testing the car.

alison measuring how far the car went.

     Today we did an amazing/fun "lab"to teach us about force, motion, Gravity, and friction. It was pretty cool. I think this is cool because we learned about it and got to have fun.

cydnee, and averee's car fell of

•     first we taped 2 yard sticks together.
•     then we piled our books and put a yard on them like a ramp.
•     next we put the car on the ramp.
•     after we watched the car roll down the ramp. It took 3 times per book.
•     we measured how far the car went of the ramp in centameters.

               After that we got our average we did _ +_+_/ 3=_. It showed us a car will move down a ramp if you give it force. Then gravity will make it go down to the floor. After that friction will make it stop because the wheels are rubbing against the carpet.

This was a fun way Mrs. Sims let us learn about force, motion, gravity, and friction we learned a whole lot! (;
