Review for:Feather/Hammer Drop on MoonIf you used this resource in your own classroom, please add your review. posted: on June 1, 2007 at 10:22AM
My rating of this resource: **
My experience using this resource: physics
Topic I was teaching: uniformly accelerated motion; Newton's Laws
My learning goal for which this resource was used: observe the slower motion due to Moon's gravity and the lack of air resistance on the Moon
Course Level: Honors or Advanced, Intro or Regular
How I/my students used the resource: I showed the video clip on the Smartboard during class
Value Added: Provides visualization or animation, Provides additional content
Strengths: simple but effective; gets the point across (can also serve as a launching point for debunking conspiracy theorists)
Weaknesses: grainy video; poor sound quality; can't use slow motion to show side-by-side motion even more clearly
