The class has been studying center of gravity. They will visit the following sites:
center of gravity class experiments
Glenn Learning experiments
National Aeronautics
You will then design an experiment to find the center of gravity on some object of your own. Write a lab report to include (purpose, materials list, procedure & data table if applicable)
They also tried the following activities & posted their results on their blogs.
* Sit sideways on your seat with feet positioned so they are not under the seat.
* Stand with the front tips of your feet against the wall. Then stand on your tiptoes.
* Stand with your heels against the wall. Can you touch your toes without falling over?
