Hooke's Law
Students study Hooke's Law. They understand that stretch on a spring is directly proportional to the force applied to the end of the string. Students observe a spring being stretched as candies are added to a cup attached to the spring. They learn to graph scatter plots, analyze linear function, ...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hookes-law
Linearity and Density
Students will perform an activity to determine the density of a metal from a graph of mass versus volumehttps://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/linearity-and-density
Hooke's Law: The Rest of the Story
Students study Hooke's Law. They explore the linear behavior of a spring as it is pulled downward and understand that stretch on a spring is directly proportional to the force applied to the end of the string. Students create scatter plots, calculate slopes, and discuss positive and negative slopes.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/hookes-law-the-rest-of-the-story
I Am Your Density
Students will model data using a linear equation, interpret the slope and intercept values from a linear model, and identify a characteristic property of a substance.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/i-am-your-density
Millikan Oil Drop Experiment Simulation
Students run a simulation on the TI-83+ or TI-84+ graphing calculator to perform a variation of the Millikan Oil Drop Experiment. The goal is to adjust the voltage across parallel plates until a droplet is suspended between the plates. The data can ba analyzed to determine the charge on the dro...https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/millikan-oil-drop-experiment-simulation
Curve Ball
In this activity, students' will create a Height-Time plot for a bouncing ball and use a quadratic equation to describe the ball's motion.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/curve-ball

Exploring Motion Graphs
Students will create distance-time and velocity-time graphs with CBL2™ and motion detectors.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/exploring-motion-graphs
Falling Down
In this activity, students' will determine the average speed of a falling object. They will observe whether or not changing the mass and keeping the same shape have an effect on the average speed of the object.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/falling-down
What's Your Speed?
In this activity, students' will use a motion detector to determine what effect the speed at which a person moves has on the appearance of the Distance versus Time plot.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/whats-your-speed
Step by Step
Students take distance readings as they walk in front of a CBR™. They apply the properties of a linear function to develop a model for the motion and interpret the values used in the model. Students learn to graph scatter plots, calculate slope, and graph linear function.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/step-by-step
Problem-Solving Steps
Students learn the four steps of problem solving: Understanding the problem, making a plan, carrying out the plan, and evaluating the results. This activity helps students develop skills to solve problems.https://education.ti.com/en/activity/detail/problemsolving-steps
