![]() Centripetal Force Project
published by
the College Ready Math-Science Partnership
written by Marc Rief
This set of teacher's notes describe an exploration of centripetal force. In the activity, students collect data on the relations between force, radius, mass, and speed for a mass traveling in a circle on the end of a string. Notes on the purpose of the activity, student difficulties addressed, and implementation are included with the teacher's notes.
This is part of a collection of similar resources developed by participants in the College-Ready Math-Science Partnership at the University of Arkansas.
