We started the class talking about falling pumpkins with this opener:
A pumpkin is dropped from a height of 125 meters off a cliff and accelerates toward the earth at a rate of 9.8 m/s/s. Use the graph paper to draw as many motion graphs as you can with the correct scales on the axes. Assume down is negative.
We then discussed general free-fall motion with this set of notes.
Finally, students learned about how to use the kinematic equations of motion either through a video (link), or direct presentation.
The next homework assignment is listed on the section tab.
