Measure Speed of Something You Make Science Projects. (23 results) Build or improve a moving object and then measure how far or fast it goes. Learn about the science behind movement to make your design go as far or fast as it can. Balloon-Powered Car Challenge.
Kids learn about speed and velocity in the science of physics and the laws of motion including units and measurement. What is the difference between speed and velocity?
Well, in this sports science fair project, you'll find out how to compute speeds needed to achieve world records. Not only that, but you'll learn what speed is, and how to measure it in almost anything that moves!
With a more shallow slope, the acceleration due to gravity is small, and the object will move at a speed that is more easily measured. This project will help you make some scientific measurements of the "push" from gravity, using a marble rolling down an inclined plane.
Velocity refers to both the speed of an object and the direction of its motion. A velocity value should have both speed units and direction units such as: m/sec north ; km/h south; cm/s left; km/min down
To find an object’s velocity, first calculate its speed and then indicate the direction of its movement! In this physical science worksheet, students will review how to calculate velocity given time and distance and then apply this process to several diverse word problems.
Acceleration. for 14-16. Experiments in this collection help students to distinguish between average and instantaneous velocities, and to understand that 'metres per second per second' is an appropriate unit for a rate of change of velocity.
