Creative Physics Photo Ideas for Grade 11 Class

Click For Summary
SUMMARY

This discussion focuses on creative photography ideas for a Grade 11 physics class, emphasizing the need to capture images that illustrate fundamental physics concepts. Suggested subjects include a waterfall and a photograph of a student riding a bike. The discussion highlights the importance of explaining net force, rotational inertia, normal force, friction, centripetal acceleration, and gravitation in relation to the chosen images.

PREREQUISITES
  • Understanding of net force and its components
  • Knowledge of rotational inertia and its implications
  • Familiarity with normal force and friction concepts
  • Basic grasp of centripetal acceleration and gravitation
NEXT STEPS
  • Research how to effectively illustrate net force in photography
  • Explore techniques for capturing motion to demonstrate rotational inertia
  • Learn about the physics of friction and how it can be visually represented
  • Investigate methods to depict centripetal acceleration in dynamic images
USEFUL FOR

Grade 11 physics teachers, students seeking creative project ideas, and anyone interested in combining photography with physics concepts.

For my grade 11 physics class I need to take a picture of something and then explain the physics behind it all. I was wondering if any of you had some interesting ideas.

A waterfall
 
A picture of yourself riding a bike.

Explain net force, rotational inertia, normal force friction. In the larger aspect of you on the Earth explain centripetal acceleration, and gravitation.
