This is a simulation, not a quiz. You answer by trying things and watching what happens.

Our question

Can you change force, mass, or friction and explain the motion that results?

Getting the simulation ready…

  1. 1Change one thing
  2. 2Say what will happen, then run it
  3. 3Finish: say what you found
What counts as evidence
  • First Launch: predicted what should change before this action: Set angle to 45° using slider.
  • First Launch: tested the mission by doing: Set angle to 45° using slider Then Click FIRE.
  • First Launch: explained why this observation matters: Angle indicator shows 45°.
  • First Launch: revised the strategy after comparing expected observations with what changed on screen.
