AP Physics Gravity Lab |
Description
|
This lab is more for review than for exploration. My students have already done most of the types of calculations for homework. It assumes familiarity with the following concepts/equations: keplers laws, semi-major axis, universal gravitational constant, centripetal force, momentum conservation, gravitational potential energy conservation. |
