This website provides teachers with activities allowing students to understand how to determine a coefficient of friction via an inclined plane. The page also includes a brief background and information on how the activity should be used to promote teamwork.
This resource is part of a Physics Front Topical Unit.
Topic: Dynamics: Forces and Motion
Unit Title: Frictional Forces Applying the skills of teamwork, students work cooperatively to find out coefficients of friction for surfaces of metal on wood and metal on metal. Link to Unit:
