Essential question: How do physicists turn motion and interaction into defensible quantitative evidence?
Two groups measure the same motion and obtain slightly different values.
Build an initial model and explanation for: How do physicists turn motion and interaction into defensible quantitative evidence?
Record observations, questions, an initial model, and one claim that could be tested. Use these concepts where relevant: SI units; scalar; vector; uncertainty; graph; model.
Study and explain the week's core ideas: SI units; scalar; vector; uncertainty; graph; model
Course safety charter and motion dataset.
Revise Monday's model. Add two evidence-backed annotations and explain one limitation or uncertainty.
Vector components, uncertainty, slope.
Show units, setup, calculation or graph reasoning, then write what the quantitative evidence can and cannot establish about: How do physicists turn motion and interaction into defensible quantitative evidence?
Measurement/video-data diagnostic; safe household objects only.
Use the course safety charter. If supervision, facilities, materials, or conditions are not appropriate, use the supplied-data/simulation alternative rather than improvising hazardous procedures.
Record variables or design constraints, procedure/model, observations/data, and one revision you would make after reviewing the evidence.
Answer the essential question: How do physicists turn motion and interaction into defensible quantitative evidence?
Submit a claim, at least two specific pieces of evidence, reasoning that connects them, one limitation/counterclaim, and a correction note for any essential concept below 80%.
Select one artifact from this week and explain why it is trustworthy evidence of growth.
