Explore the forces at work when you try to push a filing cabinet. Create an applied force and see the resulting friction force and total force acting on the cabinet. Charts show the forces, position, velocity, and acceleration vs. time. View a Free Body Diagram of all the forces (including gravitational and normal forces).

Over approximately 10 days students learn how Newton's Laws are observed in space life.Students complete a noteguide as they read and article, watch videos from the ISS (International Space Station) and complete hands-on activities in class. As a final assessment students explain the laws to a future astronaut. A rubric for the writing is included.
