*This is a sample Task Sheet that I would give my students. You will need to refer to it while reading through our presentation. Advanced Physics Chapter 5 Newton’s Second law NAME: __ **Required Assignments** __

5.4 - 5.7 and summary I will let you pick how you take notes, - Two column notes from chapter 4 - Outline format in my class in previous weeks or - You may also choose AVID questions as your notes (do questions for each section Level 1 questions as needed at least 1 Level 2 per section and at least 1 level 3 per chapter) I am asking you to try the notes on your own out of class and then compare your notes to mine. Mine will be organized into the 2 column notes. The 20 points is based on you trying the notes on your own, I will go over the notes like I did last week in class but I expect you to have most of them done before class. ||  || Page 71-73 Questions 1 – 44 ||   ||

__ **Assessment you need 40 points from the following sections** __ __ **Objectives for Chapter 5** __ __ **You Need 40 points of Alternative assessments to move on** __


 * __State the relationship between acceleration and net force__
 * __State the relationship between acceleration and mass__
 * __State and explain Newton’s second law of motion__
 * __Describe the effect of friction on stationary and on moving objects__
 * __Distinguish between force and pressure__
 * __Explain why acceleration of an object in free fall does not depend upon the mass of the object__
 * __Describe the effect of air resistance on a falling object.__
 * **Galileo Physics:** __Max 10 points__ ||
 * **Assignment** || **Point value** || **Check List** || **Grade** ||
 * **Everyday Physics:** Choose a 2 parts of an automobile that are affected by friction. Find one part that decreases the efficiency of the car and one that increases the efficiency of the car. Show a picture of the part and explain how the friction can be increased or decreased to improve the performance of the car || 5 ||  ||   ||
 * Make a **Cartoon strip** that explains the Newton’s Second law of motion. The cartoon should be hand drawn with details and color/shadowing. There will be an OD for this project || 10 ||  ||   ||
 * **Newtonian Physics** __Max 20 points__ ||
 * **Assignment** || **Point value** || **Check List** || **Grade** ||
 * Create and solve 10 physics **problems** using what we learned about Newton’s second law F=ma. Be Creative! || 10 ||  ||   ||
 * Make a **poster** or book that explains what you have learned in class this week. *See **New** __rubric for grading, Objective needed to be covered are at the top of assessment section, there is an OD for this assignment.__ || 20 ||  ||   ||
 * NEW ASSIGNMENT : Some of you are really enjoying using and playing with the wiki site. So now its your turn! Use what you know about Newton's second law to make a wiki site that teaches the objectives for Newton's second law. I will using the book/poster rubric to grade this assignment and there will be an OD. || 20 ||  ||   ||
 * **Essay:** In recent years, many Olympic athletes, such as sprinters, swimmers, skiers, and speed skaters, have used modified equipment to reduce the effects of friction and air or water drag. Research a piece of equipment used by one of these types of athletes and the way it has changed over the years. Explain how physics has impacted these changes. Include a typed summary of your findings, pictures of the gear, and a list of sources for your information. Make sure to CREDIT YOUR SOURCES! MLA style. *See rubric for grading, there is an OD for this assignment. || 20 ||  ||   ||
 * PBS has decided that it wants to televise certain sporting events, and that they would like these programs to have some educational value as well as entertainment value. As a test of this idea, you are to provide the voice-over on a sports **video**, and explain the physics of the action appearing on the screen. Each student will do a “science commentary” on a short sports video. Ask Mrs. Greene for help I have a website that will help. || 20 ||  ||   ||
 * Make a **Power Point presentation** that address this weeks objectives. *See rubric for grading, Objective needed to be covered are at the top of assessment section, there is an OD for this assignment. || 20 ||  ||   ||

* Test needs to be 85% correct to move on || 30 ||  ||   ||
 * **Einstein Physics**__:__ ||
 * **Assignment** || **Point value** || **Check List** || **Grade** ||
 * **Test** Take a test on objectives from the top of the page
 * **Identify, adapt, or invent** a sport that people on the moon will find interesting, exciting, and entertaining. Write a proposal to NASA which includes the following: a description of your sport and its rules and how it meets the basic requirements for a sport a comparison of factors affecting sports on earth and on the moon in general; a comparison of the play of your sport on earth and on the moon including any changes to the size of the field, alterations to the equipment, or changes in the rules. || 10- 20 ||  ||   ||
 * If you have another idea or assignment you would like to do, speak to Mrs. Greene about it before attempting it. ||  ||   ||   ||
