Unit III Forces and Motion (Newton's Laws) Syllabus and Portfolio Directions Objective:  Assemble the assignments for the unit into a booklet. Then, use the booklet to complete review questions and prepare for the test. The following items should be put in the following order in the portfolio: Portfolio Directions and Unit Syllabus (this sheet) (printable copy) Vocabulary ______ Classwork/Daily Log ______ Video: Forces and Gravity (no worksheet) ______ Newton's First and Second Laws of Motion ______ Reading Assignment - Chapter 12 - sec 1, 2, 3 & 4 ______ A Crash Course in Safety ______ Gravity - A Familiar Force ______ Rollball Activity ______ Newton's First Law - No Net Force Activity ______ Connecting Motion with Forces ______ ______ Unit III Study Guide ______ Portfolio Grade cover (out of 5) ______  (Neatness, effort, and color are important.) objectives (out of 5) ______ concepts (out of 5) ______  (You may use words, symbols, diagrams on each.) contents (out of 5) ______  (All assignments must be included and in order.) total (out of 20) ______ Test Grade ________ The Front Cover Write the unit title on the cover. "Unit III - Forces and Motion (Newton's Laws)" Decorate the front cover with drawings of concepts from the chapter. Be neat and use lots of creativity and color. The Inside Front Cover Write "Objectives" at the top of the page.  List the following unit objectives: State Newton's first law of motion (the law of inertia) and describe inertia. Identify natural forces such as gravity, friction, nuclear forces and electromagnetic forces. Explain how forces affect the motion of an object. Calculate force using Newton’s second law (Fnet = m · a). Compare and contrast momentum and inertia. Calculate momentum (momentum = m · v)and explain the Law of Conservation of Momentum. Describe the effect of action/reaction forces (Newton’s third law). Describe projectile motion and show how gravity affects the motion of projectiles. Distinguish between weight and mass and show how weight can be calculated (w = g · m). Inside Back Cover Write "Concepts" at the top of the page.  Divide the page into nine squares. Explain the answers to the unit objectives with words and diagrams.   Back Cover Write your name - Last Name, First Name and your class in the lower right hand corner of the page.
