The Week of 11/29-12/3 (updated on 12/1)

Congratulations Physics Students.  You have made it through the toughest part of the course!  Traditionally Chapters 3 and 4 are the chapters that give students the most confusion.  But things are just getting going.  Before Winter Break we will do a Full Inquiry Lab, start a project, and do an Egg Drop.  We will definitely be busy!
Here's the week coming up:
  • Monday 11/29:  Physics definition of work and kinetic energy.  HW#11 p. 170 1+3, p. 173 1-3 (4 EC).
  • Tuesday 11/30:  Check off HW #11 and go over.  Potential energy (elastic and gravitational).  HW #12 p. 177 1-4.  
  • Wednesday 12/1:  Mid-day FLEX!  Come in for test corrections, help, or other makeup.
  • Thursday 12/2:  Check off HW #12 and go over.  Conservation of Mechanical Energy.  HW#13 p. 182 1-5.   Hooke's Law data taking and Spring Inquiry Introduction. Write up Question, Background, Hypothesis, Variables, Procedure, and Data Table.
  • Friday 12/3:  Take Data for Spring Inquiry Lab.  Check off HW #13.
