Scientific Method
Make an educated guess based on what you know
Hypothesis
Also known as Movement
Motion
To every action there is always an equal and opposite reaction.
The Third Law of Motion
AKA Action-Reaction Law
What force dragged the marble down our marble runs?
Gravity
Record what you saw during the experiment
Observe and Record
What is used to create motion
Energy
An object in motion/at rest will stay in motion/at rest unless acted upon by an outside force.
The First Law of Motion
AKA The Law of Inertia
When we used force on the ooblex, what happened?
The ooblex got hard

Anything that can make an object move or stop moving.
Outside Force
The Second Law of Motion uses the terms Force and Mass. What are the other words you can use instead of Force and Mass?
Force = Strength or What is used to make an object move
Mass = Weight
What happened if we broke the connection during our experiment with the energy stick?
It stopped working
What do you want to learn more about?
Question
Drags objects down to the ground
Gravity
The speed and direction of an object’s motion will depend on the mass (weight) of the object and the sum of all the forces being used on it.
The Second Law of Motion
AKA The Law of Force and Mass

Use the information you recorded to see if your hypothesis was correct
Draw a conclusion
The name of the scientist who made the Laws of Motion
Issac Newton
(Hint: Law #, not the definition)
The First Law of Motion
If I throw an object in space, will it stop moving?
Not unless acted on by an outside force because there is no gravity!
