Lesson Outline
Sketch and discuss the path an object will take when dropped from a height above the surface of the planet when different forces are applied. Sketch the path if dropped straight down, if pushed with a small force, if used with a greater force, and finally if accelerated with a high force. Discuss the different motions from straight down to curved, to a greater curve and finally an orbit. Use the formula d=1/2at^2 to solve for distance.
