Objective: Understand vectors by connecting it to the Flying Delorean Problem.

Vectors Activity
Definition: Quantity represented by direction and magnitude
​
Ex. Velocity: 5 m/h North
Ex. 4i-7j+13k
Ex. Matrix vector
Ex. (1,2) (4,5,-3)

Stations
Instructions: For this activity, on the tables around the room are worksheets that have instructions for the different workstations. Once you get to your table, find the instruction sheet and the activity that goes with it. Each activity will be given 12 minutes to complete, once you completed all 6 stations turn in this worksheet to Ande. 

Materials: Notebook, Computer, Desmos
​
Table 1: Scavenger Hunt
Task: You must find the yeeted cat. Follow these vectors until you find it. Use a compass and count your steps to measure the vectors. The yellow wall in Kyle’s room represents the x-axis while the hallway outside the classroom represents the y-axis. The door is considered the origin. Use the examples of vectors to find the yeeted cat. ​
Table 2: Vector Operations
  1. Listen to Ande’s or Kyle’s Lecter on vector operations. 
-Adding/Subtracting Vectors
-Scalar multiplication
-magnitude
  1. Complete to practice problems on your Vector Activity Worksheet
Table 3: Climbing Anchors
Task: The goal of this activity is to calculate force on anchor points for climbing anchors. On the rack, there are three configurations of anchors and a weight suspended from each focal point. Calculate the amount of weight on each anchor point.
Table 4: Vector Fields

Instructions:
  1. Open Ande’s DP and clink the link under Table 4.
  2. Read The article
  3. Answer the prompt on your Vector Activity Worksheet
Table 5: Free Body Diagrams
Task: In the video the guy gives various examples of free body diagrams. When you see the pause symbol on the screen stop the video and draw the free body diagram. Do this for 3 examples.
Instructions:
  1. Open Ande’s DP and clink the link under Table 5.
  2. Watch this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nDis6HbXxjg
  3. Draw 3 free body diagrams from the video
Table 6: Free Body Diagram of the Flying Delorean 
Task: From Table 5 you learned how to create free body diagrams. This will be very useful for determining where the flying delorean will land. Follow the prompts below.
  1. Measure how fast the Delorean goes down the ramp. This is the initial velocity. 
  2. Assume when the Flying Delorean leaves the ramp it is t=0. Draw free body diagram of the Flying Delorean
  3. What is the vertical and horizontal components of the vector of the Flying Delorean’s initial velocity?
