Physics - Mechanics - Newton's Laws - Newton's Second Law (F=ma) - Push the Boxes
Present 6 scenarios asking students to predict outcomes. (1) 'Same force pushes a heavy box and a light box. Which accelerates more?' (Light). (2) 'Same box pushed with a big force vs small force. Which accelerates more?' (Big force). (3) 'You push a shopping cart. Is it easier when empty or full?'
