Created for students in an SEN (Autism) school. Works for LAP
Three equations:
Stopping Distance = Thinking Distance + Braking Distance - 7 questions
Thinking Distance = Speed x Reaction Time - 7 questions
Braking Distance = (Speed2) ÷ (2 x Deceleration) - 6 questions
Questions are linked to Top Gear. Randomly ordered.
Three example questions included at the beginning:
Example 1 - Jeremy Clarkson drove a McLaren P1 at 90 mph. What is the stopping distance if the thinking distance is 25 m and the braking distance is 140m?
Stopping distance = 25 + 140 = 165 m
Example 2 – Richard Hammond drove a Mercedes-Benz S-Class at 27 m/s. If his reaction time is 1.5 seconds, what is the thinking distance?
Thinking distance = 27 x 1.5 = 40.5 m
Example 3 - James May tested a Lexus LC 500 at a speed of 22 m/s. If the deceleration rate is 8 m/s², what is the braking distance?
Braking distance = (22^2) ÷ (2 x 8) = 484 ÷ 16 = 30.25 m

Included:
3 x worksheets - all unblurred when bought
Starter question
Info - Isaac Newton
Forces as push or pulls and changing an objects speed, shape or direction
ACTIVITY - unit of force, what forces are, how they effect objects, examples of force action on objects with pics - GAPFILL
Whole class check for understanding - are these forces pushes or pulls x 3

Types of forces - tension, normal, friction, thrust, upthrust, weight, magnetic, electrostatic air resistance. Arrows showing direction
Whole class check for understanding - which arrows are correct for direction of force x 3
Drag forces
ACTIVITY - Identify the force and add arrows to show direction
Whole class check for understanding - what type of force is this - x 5
Contact vs non-contact forces
ACTIVITY - table completion of contact vs non-contact forces and a gapfill definition completion
Whole class check for understanding - ontact vs non-contact forces thumbs up & down
ACTIVITY - Independent worksheet & answers
