Learning Lives Here - Wheatland High School

Recently, Integrated Science students put Newton’s Laws of Motion to the test by designing, building, and crash-testing custom prototype vehicles. Tasked with protecting a raw egg passenger down an incline ramp into a solid barrier, students applied F = m x a, inertia, and impulse-momentum concepts. By engineering functional seatbelts to counteract passenger inertia and cushioned bumpers to absorb impact forces over time, students connected foundational physics directly to real-world automotive safety engineering.
