1 Forces and Motion – Part C2a “Movement F = ma, Terminal V, Stopping Distances”
Aims…
1.17 know and use the relationship between unbalanced force, mass and acceleration:
force = mass × acceleration OR F = m × a
1.18 know and use the relationship between weight, mass and gravitational field strength:
weight = mass × gravitational field strength OR W = m × g
1.19 know that the stopping distance of a vehicle is made up of the sum of the thinking distance and the braking distance
1.20 describe the factors affecting vehicle stopping distance including speed, mass, road condition and reaction time
1.21 describe the forces acting on falling objects and explain why falling objects reach a terminal velocity.

Amazing Friction Free - Sublimation of dry ice!
This was an accidental find really, as I spilled some dry ice on the desk and found that as it sublimes the gas gives a cushion which means the rest ...of the mass will end up behaving like it is on a friction free surface. You can really push it around without it interacting much!

This is a really cool practical to show how a solid can take energy from a liquid and make it into a solid.
Freezing point of mercury is -38.83 °C
Freezing point ...of CO2 is −78.5 °C
So clearly the internal energy of the mercury was reduced to a lower amount and the temperature decreased!Show More Lesson 3 Friction and Air Resistance
