Solve It! - Inclined Planes
The Solve It! - Inclined Planes Concept Builder challenges a learner to analyze a physical situation involving the acceleration of an object along an inclined planes. The analysis involves the use of vector resolution and Newton's second law. There are three levels of difficulty with each level adding an additional complexity. There are two different situations to analyze in each level. Numerical information in the situation is generated using a random number generator and will thus vary from person to person and from session to session. Question-specific help is provided for each of the 6 situations. Using the Concept Builder with our Task Tracker system allows for the storage of progress records.
Users are encouraged to open the Concept Builder and explore. There is no need for an activity sheet for this Concept Builder. However, the 8 different groups of questions can be printed. View
