Cars and the Laws of Physics
  1. A method of using an Automobile to help our
    students relate to the usefulness of our everyday
    experiences with the Laws of Physics
  2. Challenging hands on activities to keep attention
    high, and to demonstrate how these normally
    boring subjects are a part of everyday Life

16
Why use it
  • The Automobile has a rolling classroom of Physic
    projects that can be used to make learning
