Triangulating the forces by superimposing this Forceometer over the diagram of the problem soon becomes visualized to
the degree that the students can understand the use of the trig functions and solve these force force problems without confusion:
The traditional Slope/Force problem quickly becomes a simple matter even for the slower students once the mechanical
aspect of the forces can be understood concretely.

AWARD WINNING PHYSICS LESSONS
This set of lesson plans requires each student to cut out and construct a Forceometer device. The Physics teacher
will immediately see the concrete presentation possible once the students learn how to use this tool. On of the Lessons requires
students to read/list the values for a series of angles. The finished assignment is then compared to the sin and
cos functions listed in the Table found in the Physics textbook. The concrete meaning of these functions in
the Tables the becomes apparent.
Endless photocopies onto hard stock paper can be made. One 8x11 1/2 cardstock page is made for each student
in every class hence forth:
