Which Vehicle has less mass? How do you know?

A proportional model has been created to analyze the relationship between force, mass and acceleration in both the movie and the recreation. Calculate acceleration of each object below.

Iceworld Revenge:

How much force and acceleration did Car 2 experience after the collision?

How could you predict the mass of each Object by analyzing force and acceleration?

CFS:

• accurately identifies the changes to each object in a collision

• accurately describes the relationship between force, mass and velocity in a collision

• accurately identifies the strongest source of evidence from the scientific data

Claire’s Test:

How much force and acceleration did Car 2 experience after the collision?

How could you predict the mass of each Object by analyzing force and acceleration?

CFS:

• accurately identifies the changes to each object in a collision

• accurately describes the relationship between force, mass and velocity in a collision

• accurately identifies the strongest source of evidence from the scientific data

In Trial 1 if the object collides, predict the more massive Object (A or B) in the collision? Use the data below to help you answer.

CFS:

• accurately identifies the changes to each object in a collision

• accurately describes the relationship between friction, mass and velocity in a collision
