Designed for the AQA 9-1 GCSE. This lesson covers the following areas. Define Newton’s Second Law and the formula F=ma. Analyse data on vehicles to determine the acceleration when given the driving force and mass of the vehicle. Explain why two identical cars that have different loads will have different accelerations. Explain why heavier vehicles have greater stopping distances than light vehicles, assuming the same braking force. Students will practice recalling and rearrange the formula F=ma with units, solving problems with the formula F=ma and prior knowledge of forces and applying Newton’s Second Law to the Top Gear video.

Designed for the AQA 9-1 specification, this lesson will assess students on the following, All – Plot a distance-time graph from given data. Most – Calculate the speed using the gradient of the line. Some – Describe what is happening at various parts of a distance-time graph.
