1 Write It! Station Directions It is recommended that you have completed at least two of the following stations before working at this station. -Read It! -Explore It! -Watch It! -Research It! Answer each of the task card questions on the lab sheet in complete sentences.

2 What two pieces of information must you have in order to calculate the average speed of an object? Describe in your own words how to calculate average speed. What will happen to the average speed of an object if the distance increases, but the time decreases?

3 Assess It! Station Directions It is recommended that you have completed at least two of the following stations before working at this station. -Read It! -Explore It! -Watch It! -Research It! Each member will answer the questions from the task cards on the lab sheet in the Assess It! section.

4 What is the average speed of a baseball that is thrown 90 feet in 2 seconds? A. 180 feet/second B. 45 feet/second C. 92 feet/second D. 88 feet/second What two things are needed to determine average speed? A. Total Direction and Total Time B. Total Mass & Total Time C. Total Distance & Total Speed D. Total Distance & Total Time Calculate the average speed of a boat that travels 600 meters in 40 seconds. What is the average speed of the object at 8 seconds?

5 Read It! Station Directions Each member of the group will read the passage and answer the questions from the task cards on the lab sheet in the Read It! section.

6 The Need For Speed While most of us can only dream of owning the fastest car in the world, some will do whatever it takes to possess one. Here are 3 of the fastest street legal cars available in the market (production models, as opposed to concept or modified cars) these are tested, measured and verified top speeds (theoretical speeds do not count). 1. Hennessey Venom GT: 270 mph (435 km/h), 0-60 mph in 2.5 seconds, has a 7.0 liter LS7 Turbocharged V8 Twin Turbo V8 Engine producing 1244 hp, with a price tag of $1,000,000 and up. The Venom GT is the fastest car in the world when tested again on February 14th at NASA runway in Florida. The track was only 3.22 miles long, thus limiting it top speed to 270 mph. 2. Bugatti Veyron Super Sport: 268 mph (431 km/h), 0-60 in 2.4 secs. Aluminum, Narrow Angle 8 Liter W16 Engine with 1200 hp, base price is $2,400,000. After being the fastest car in the world for over 3 years from July 10, 2010, it is now in 2nd place as of February 14. In the past, the Bugatti Veyron lost the title to SSC Ultimate Aero on March However, Bugatti challenged the record in Germany on July 10, 2010 with the new Super Sport and reclaimed the title of the fastest car in the world at 268 mph. The original Bugatti Veyron had a top speed of 253 mph, priced at $1,700,000 with 1001 hp. 3. Koenigsegg Agera R: 260 mph (418 km/h), 0-60 mph in 2.9 secs. 5.0-liter V8 Engine with twin turbo s, housing 1099 hp. Base price is $1,600,000. If you're into snow sports, the Agera R can be fitted with a Ski Box as well as winter tires. While the Agera R has a massive theoretical top speed, the current tested top speed is 260 mph. Expect this snow car to be the Bugatti's arch enemy for the next 5 years.

7 A. to sell B. to own C. to fail D. to let go In the first paragraph the word possess means? What would be another good title for this passage? A. How to Calculate Average Speed B. Fastest Car in the World C. The 3 Fastest Cars in 2014 D. The Most Expensive Cars in the World Use information you have learned from the other stations to answer the following question. What two pieces of data are necessary to calculate average speed of the world s fastest cars? According to the passage, which car is the second fastest car in the world? A. Hennessey Venom GT B. Bugatti Veyron Super Sport C. Koenigsegg Agera R D. SSC Ultimate Aero

8 Watch It! Station Directions Each member of the group will go to the website listed on task card #1 Complete the task cards in order. Every student will answer the questions from the task cards on the lab sheet in the Watch It! section of the lab sheet.

9 1. Scan or go to 2. Press PLAY 3. Answer questions on cards #2-#4 Millimeters, centimeters, meters, kilometers, inches, feet, and miles are all examples of. What is the formula for calculating average speed? What is the average speed of a car that travels 540 miles in 6 hours?

10 Research It! Station Directions Each member of the group will go to the website listed on task card #1 Complete the task cards in order. Every student will answer the questions from the task cards on the lab sheet in the Research It! section.

11 1. Go to 2. Complete the 3 problems on cards #2-4 using the correct calculator from the website. 1. What is the average speed in mph for a car that travels 400 miles in 5 hours and 20 minutes? 2. What formula did you have to use? 1. How many miles did a plane travel if it flew 455 miles per hour in 3 hours? 2. What formula did you have to use? 1. How long did it take a bike to travel 20 miles at 12 mph? 2. What formula did you have to use?

12 1. Create your own word problem and solve it on your lab sheet. 2. What formula did you have to use?

13 Explore It! Station Directions One member of the group will read the task cards in order. The group will be responsible for completing each of the tasks that are being read. Each member of the group will then write their conclusions down on the lab sheet in the Explore It! section.

14 1. Use the stopwatch, and start/finish lines to measure one other person in your group perform the following tasks: walking, hopping, walking backwards. 1. Your teachers will provide you with the distance of the track. 2. Fill out the missing information with your data from your walking, hopping, and walking backwards trials. 1. Calculate the average speed for each of the 3 activities. 2. Answer the remaining questions on your lab sheet.

15 Illustrate It! Station Directions Each member of the group will draw a quick sketch on the lab sheet the shows they understand the concept that is being taught. Use the map colors and markers that are provided. The directions for the sketch are provided on the task card at the table.

16 Illustrate It! Station Directions Draw a picture on your lab sheet that demonstrates your knowledge of average speed. Be sure to include labels for Total Time, Total Distance, and Average Speed. You may makeup numbers, but try to keep them realistic if possible.

17 Organize It! Station Directions It is recommended that you have completed at least two of the following stations before working at this station. -Read It! -Explore It! -Watch It! -Research It! Every student will answer the questions from the task cards on the lab sheet in the Organize It! Section. Please mix up the cards again before the next group arrives at this station.

18 1. Take the cards out of the bag and place them on the table. 2. Put them in the correct categories (Time, Distance, Average Speed) 1. You will receive bonus points if you are able to line up the correct distance, time, and average speeds. 1. On your lab sheet write 2 distances, 2 times, and 2 average speeds OR 2. If you were able to put them in the correct order list them out on your lab sheet. 3. Mix the cards up and put them back into the bag.

19 Distance Time Average Speed 38 mi/hr 50 m/min 10 yds/sec 5 cm/sec 76 Miles 450 Meters 100 Yards 20 cm 2 hours 9 minutes 10 seconds 4 seconds

1. Measure the length of the track (already set up by your teacher) in meters and record in table 1. Use a meter stick for this.
