Forces and motion investigation – friction.

Tuesday, 15 May: Investigation 2 – Does friction influence the speed of a moving object?

After our short input lesson today on this investigation I would like you to consider what and how you are going to do your investigation.

Type of friction I am investigating?

• Air resitance and/or
• Surface friction between the object and surface of the track the object is moving on.

What materials will I need for my investigation?

Please bring along the materials you would need (toy car, small ball etc) or like to test in your investigation.
