Have her differentiate between force and velocity vectors by asking her to first draw the direction of the motion first and then to identify where a force is being applied (tension in string). Finally, ask her to draw this force (Fc). andrea_janssen https://padlet.com/andrea_janssen/trfjpeghhd5g/wish/139457208 2016-11-22 19:31:35 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_janssen/trfjpeghhd5g/wish/139457208 I think that as a class the majority of them seem to be either on the verger of understanding everything completely and g https://padlet.com/andrea_janssen/trfjpeghhd5g/wish/149329828 2017-01-25 14:53:58 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_janssen/trfjpeghhd5g/wish/149329828 https://padlet.com/andrea_janssen/trfjpeghhd5g/wish/383462410 I think a majority of the students are close enough to understanding that we could move on. I would take those individual students aside as the others are working on a worksheet and start out by having them draw an object in freefall. If they can conceptualize that then we can move into a centripetal motion and see if they can conceptualize it with the ball on a string. I think that is the easiest of these thought experiments to use for this concept.]]> 2019-09-12 18:35:14 UTC https://padlet.com/andrea_janssen/trfjpeghhd5g/wish/383462410
