Name _______________________ Date _________ Period ______ Newton’s Laws Project Due Date January 27, 2017 Newton’s Laws of Motion Project Sir Isaac Newton lived during the 1600s. Like all scientists, he made observations about the world around him. Some of his observations were about motion. His observations have been supported by more data over time; and we now call these Newton’s Laws of Motion. His laws of motion explain rest, constant motion, accelerated motion, and describe how balanced and unbalanced forces act to cause these states of motion. Newton’s three laws of motion: Newton's first law of motion says that an object in motion will stay in motion and an object at rest will stay at rest unless acted on by an unbalanced force. An object will not change its motion unless a force acts on it. An object that is not moving remains at rest until something pushes or pulls it. An object that is moving remains moving until something pushes or pulls it. All objects resist having their motion changed. This tendency to resist a change in motion is called inertia. The more mass an object has, the greater its inertia. The second law of motion states that the force of an object is equal to its mass times its acceleration. A change in motion occurs only if a net force is exerted on an object. A net force changes the velocity of the object, and causes it to accelerate. If an object is acted upon by a net force, the change in velocity will be in the direction of the net force. The acceleration of an object depends on its mass. The more mass an object has or the more inertia it has, the harder it is to accelerate. More mass means less acceleration if the force acting on the objects is the same. Newton's third law of motion states that for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction. When one object exerts a force on a second object, the second object exerts an equal force in the opposite direction on the first object. The force exerted by the first object is the action force. The force exerted by the second object is the reaction force. Newton’s Law Project: Where can you find Newton’s three Laws? This project allows you to present your project in one of three ways. Option A: Poster Option B: Brochure (any size paper at least 8½ x 11 inches, folded into thirds) or Option 3: Booklet Assignment: Create a poster, brochure, or booklet that illustrates an example of each of the three laws of motion. 1. States the laws of motion. 2. Create two illustrations for each of Newton’s three laws of motion. You may use your own photos, draw illustrations, images from magazines, or images from the Internet. Write an explanation of how the illustrations show or describe the law of motion for each illustration. The explanation should be in complete sentences and should be next to the illustration. Each paragraph must be at least 4 sentences. Please make sure your references are school appropriate. 3. Make sure your illustrations are colorful and neat. 4. Include headings to identify which law of motion is being demonstrated. Headings should be attractive, colorful, and easily read. 5. Projects should display a Title, three headings, six pictures or illustrations, and 6 narrative explanations. 6. Name, period, and date on the back of the project.
