Physics (Period 2/3)

Course Description

 Physics is about the nature of basic things such as motion, forces, energy, matter, heat, sound, light, and the composition of atoms.
 
Physics is the study of the fundamental laws of nature.  Physicists want to know how things work.  They observe nature and figure out the rules or laws that govern its operations.
 
Creativity plays an important role in interpreting nature, and in finding ways to solve problems.  Physics helps develop creative, logical, and consistent ways of thinking.  Because of these attributes, people who study physics go on to careers in many interesting fields.

Lunar Lander Activity

Lab: Lunar Lander
 
The simulation shows how the combination of multiple forces can result in an overall resultant force.  In this simulation you are going to try and control the decent of the lunar lander and successfully land on the surface of the moon.  You can control the main rocket as well as rockets to tilt your Lander from side to side.  Your goal is to earn as many points as possible.
