March 6-7, 2008

Well, there was some confusion whether who will be the scribe for last Thursday and Friday, so i'm going to apologize for the lateness of this scribe. During the Thursday class, we just talked about elastic and inelastic collision. Then the rest of the class was spent on working on the following worksheets:
Chapter 9: Study Guide
Chapter 7: Momentum
9: Study Guide
Impulse and Momentum

During Friday's class, we did a lab on the conservation of momentum, one ball colliding with another. We rolled a sphere down a little ramp colliding with another sphere at the end of the ramp, set up at an angle either to the left or to the right. This lab was done to prove that the momentum before and after collision is equal.

monday blog done on tuesday morning

i forgot to do this last night so here it is ..

in monday's class we went over the chapter 9 study guide, chapter 7-1 sheet and the section 9-1 sheet as well. after that we continued to work on our labs which is due today !

NO SCHOOL ON THURSDAY =)

and a test on both momentum AND projectiles next wednesday or thursday, if im not mistaken .

DYNAMICS


Today in class we went over the dynamics test. Here are the corrections to the test.
Well the first and second questions are similar, all you had to do was draw the forces acting on the objects. Watch out for how long the arrows are because the longer the arrow is the stronger the force. Well the best way to get your questions addressed and answered is by asking someone in class or the teacher. I'm sure any one of us are happy to help.
That's basically all we did in class and a lab. The lab I assume is to be done by tomorrow and handed in. It wasn't a hard lab and the write up isn't difficult as well. Voila. That was the class in physics today.

Tomorrows scribe will be MARK!
