STUDENT OPINIONS ABOUT DYNAMICS OF MOTION ON FRICTION INCLINED PLANE

Abstract

This study was carried out to determine the opinions of second-grade high school students about dynamics of motion on a friction inclined plane. For this study, an open-ended Friction Inclined Plane Motion Test (SEDHT), consisting of two sections, was developed as the data collection tool. In the first section, students’ opinions about how some changes made on the system of a body on a friction inclined plane can affect the motion of the body are taken. In the second section, the students are asked to draw a free-body diagram of the system and expected to state the forces that cause the motion of the body or inhibit it. A total of 108 students, studying in two high schools in Ankara, participated in the study. According to the study results, most of the students think that the location and the mass of a body on a friction inclined plane affect the motion of the body. In addition, the results indicated that in most of the free-body diagrams drawn by the students, the forces causing the motion were not shown at all or were shown incorrectly, and some forces that never exist were added to the system. Finally, the study found out that the students had misconceptions about the forces causing or inhibiting the motion shown in the diagrams.
