Oberon High School

At Oberon High School students and teachers used the power of iPads and smartphones to measure velocity and study how Newton’s Laws of Motion operate in motor vehicle accidents.  Teddy bears were used to simulate the impact of a vehicle as it comes to sudden stop.  Students and teachers experimented with crumple zones and ‘seat belts’.  Videoing impacts with a smart phone and using timers students were able to see the effects of collisions on the passenger teddies.
