Exam on the horizon... Friday

Today we worked problems from notes and did an activity (ruler drop) to measure human reaction time.  Your values of time should work out to be in the range of 0.1 to 0.3 seconds.

As far as studying, lots of problems are a good place to start, you can make an equation card (we only have 3 equations we're using this unit), and look to the chapter review in the book (we're not doing the last section of the chapter on Forces and Newton's laws - that will be next unit.)

Tomorrow we'll do a video analysis of a vertically tossed ball, practice a couple of new problems, and look at 2-dimensional motion: Gravity has some unexpected situational effects.
Notes on projectile motion here.
If you are working on optional assignments, this week is a good time to finish them.  #2 is due this week, and it is very relevant to the exam.
review worksheet here
Wednesday we'll do some graph matching and have a worksheet - it will be tough!
Thursday we'll shoot the monkey and review for the exam.
