This is the third lesson in a unit of work on forces which could be adapted for use at KS3 or GCSE. The lesson focuses on understanding why objects deform when a force is applied. There is a short activity on particles and bonds but knowledge of this would be useful in fully understanding the lesson.
During this lesson, pupils will:
- Complete a true or false activity based on the content of lesson two of this unit.
- Watch a video to recap prior knowledge and quiz other pupils on it.
- Recap particles and bonding.
- Recognize that when a force is applied the bone between atoms can extend of compress.
- Apply knowledge to a golf ball being hit and compressing and a bungee jump extending the bungee rope.
- Write a description of someone jumping on a trampoline including the forces acting and effect on the bonds at different points of the jump.
- Consolidation activity.
