Balance the ruler so there is an equal length on both sides of the fulcrum (at the 6” mark). Put a nickel at the one inch mark on the ruler. Record your observations in the data table.
Keep the nickel at the 1” mark. Drop a quarter on the end of the opposite end of the ruler from about 12 inches in height. Measure the distance from the end of the ruler to where the nickel lands. Record your results.
Repeat this 3 times.
Now move your fulcrum to the 9 inch mark and repeat steps 2-4.
Now more your fulcrum to the 12 inch mark and repeat steps 2-4. Which causes the nickel to fly farther? Which takes more force?

1. label high-pressure areas with the letter h. 2. label low-pressure areas with the letter l. 3. over which area(s) would you expect to see rain or snow? 4. over which area(s) would you expect to see clear skies? 5. draw arrows around the h on the map to show the wind direction. 6. draw arrows around the l on the map to show the wind direction. 7. imagine that you live in maine. currently there is a high-pressure area over maine. if a low-pressure area moves in, how will the direction of the wind change? 5. draw arrows around the h on the map to show the wind direction. 6. draw arrows around the l on the map to show the wind direction. 7. imagine that you live in maine. currently there is a high-pressure area over maine. if a low-pressure area moves in, how will the direction of the wind change? 8. imagine that you live in colorado. currently there is a low-pressure area over colorado. if a high-pressure area moves in, how will the direction of the wind change? 9. according to the map, where would the strongest winds be expected? (refer to the lesson if needed.)
