These are sample instructions students can carry out with the projetile simulation (http://phet.colorado.edu/en/simulation/projectile-motion )at PHET. One thing I have noted with students is that whenever they are shown a simulation without specific instructions,they dont do anyting worthwhile. So these instructions are part of a series to help students out of this chalenge..

These Interactive Physics Demonstrations were developed by MAJ James Bowen, MAJ Cathleen Barker, MAJ Andrew Wilhelm, and others at the United States Military Academy for their University Physics course. Each activity is presented as a worksheet, which guides students through an experimental or observational process with questions.

This physics activity is a projectile motion / gravity investigation where students drop and shoot (horizontally) soft balls from different heights and record the time taken to hit the ground. Students make a trendline to predict the time it will take the ball to hit the ground from a certain height. Students will also discover that shot and dropped balls hit the ground at the same time.

This activity is a project where students build a catapult and analyze the energy transformations, role of Newton's Laws, and role of friction and other forces.

Students will understand that projectile motion is a result of two independent motions, horizontal and vertical by reading, problem-solving, and experimentation.

This is a version of the time-tested lab where students roll a ball off a table top and use kinematics in two dimensions to try to predict where the ball will land. While many versions of this lab have been previously published, in this version students determine the uncertainty of all measurements and uncertainty of their prediction. The techniques and vocabulary are consistent with the Introduction to Measurement packet.

Isaac Newton's famous thought experiment about what would happen if you launched a cannon from a mountaintop at a high velocity comes to life with an interactive computer model. You are charged with the task of launching a satellite into space. Control the angle and speed at which the satellite is launched, and see the results to gain a basic understanding of escape velocity.

Build your own system of heavenly bodies and watch the gravitational ballet. With this orbit simulator, you can set initial positions, velocities, and masses of 2, 3, or 4 bodies, and then see them orbit each other.
This is a computer and outdoor lab based activity in which students …
This is a computer and outdoor lab based activity in which students design two bottle rockets that are designed to reach maximum height. Students will calculate maximum height and terminal velocity for each rocket launched.

This is a quiz designed to accompany the online simulation "Projectile Motion," which is part of the PhET Interactive Simulations of the University of Colorado Boulder.The quiz was designed for Canvas. Each question includes instructions for an action the student is to complete in the online simulation, followed by a multiple choice question.
