Forces and Newton's Laws of Motion
9/1 Warm-up: What are the main events and scientists we study in physics, start from 500BC to 1800AD? Which are easy to identify and which are not? Discuss this with your partner, then be ready to share out. How are your events or scientists similar or different? Write a summary comparing the two scientists or events that you and your partner discussed. Class Notes
Notes: Continue your notes on the main physics findings in history and submit two test questions per group by the end of the period. Be sure to share the notes from your group on your historical figure on the common google docs as well.
1. List the important scientists during your time period.
2. List the equations from this physics link that you need to use for building strong supportive structures?
Practice problems:

Newton's First Law PPT and note guide
Group Assignment- You are responsible for a historical period of physics discovery marked by famous architectural structures. Describe a structure, the people involved in creating it and the general political and cultural events occurring in the same time period. Present your research as a news article report. Include at least three physical laws an how they are used to ensure your structure's durability and function as well as elegance and sophistication. Also report on the materials used and why they were chosen and any other significant physical information about your structure.
Prepare a detailed presentation following this rubric so that you can prepare your classmates for a quiz on the history of physics through timeless architectural structures. Use the links provided to guide your research.
