Friction Notes
Answers to Review Run-OnParagraph WS
Today in class:
Turn in Labs
Easier Momentum Problems, Really!!!
Answers to HMWK turned in on Monday (if we didn't discuss them yesterday)
Newton's 2nd Law demonstration (we'll see...)
Snow Contest Information
Exam upcoming: next Monday, 11/4

Newton's 3rd and Momentum
Wednesday we had notes and discussion / demonstrations about Newton's 3rd law and momentum conservation. Thursday we had a quiz (except 4th - they will quiz on Monday).
I will post a copy of the notes online on Monday; I forgot to do so Wednesday.
HMWK due Monday; Read p.113-117, p. 117#1-6
Friction labs are due Tuesday.
The exam I had planned for Tuesday is now rescheduled for next Monday (after Halloween)... sorry to move back so much but that will allow more appropriate presentation of force - topics, review, and for you to not have 3+ exams in one week.
Monday we'll see answers on homework that was turned in last week, discuss what coefficient of friction means (for your post-lab), practice application of Newton's 3rd AND momentum, and maybe go over the answers to p. 117's problems. I will post the answers to the worksheet with the paragraph at the top and the practice questions on bottom/back on the webpage so you can check your work.
Tuesday we'll hopefully try a demonstration involving Newton's 2nd law... hopefully it will work - and practice problems that are all - encompassing involving force, mass, acceleration... and relating it back to what you should know about velocity and position.
Wednesday we'll watch some videos of car crashes, look at test data, and discuss how momentum = m*v and F*t relate to what you experience in a situation where you're accelerated. We will send some kids into the hall to move with a sensor on them and then try to assess from the graph what they did.
Friday I hope to have the mobile computer lab; we will do graph matching with roller coasters and maybe have time to start on some optional assignments; I will put another one up this week - only three people have completed the Forces in 1 Dimension one so far... you can still do it for points through this week!

Monday: Direction of Forces, Newton's 2nd law practice
HMWK for Wednesday: Read p. 104-111; p. 111#2-8 (should be review based on what we've done in class)
Also, due next Monday: Read p. 112-117 (including the black page!) and p. 117#1-6. (on #1, note that it doesn't matter whether the wall moves or not - you can even scratch that part out in your book!)
Today in class we will do a demonstration involving the direction of net force on an object, then talk about the direction of the net force in a car crash and vehicular safety in general as it relates to F = ma.
We'll look at some science in the news, watch a quick video for National Earth Science week, and have time to work on a review worksheet.
Friction Lab prep today; bring your lab worksheet and journal tomorrow!
Wednesday we'll probably focus on momentum and Newton's 2nd law verification with a demonstration and individual video analysis. Thursday we'll see how much of this relates to car crashes with a fun video, and Monday we'll focus our attention on Newton's 3rd law, which has the most fun implications I think.
Test will be late next week; then we will make one more step into Physics with Work and Energy!

Friday: Quiz, Cars & Air Resistance, Centripetal Acceleration, Friction Lab released
Today's quiz was challenging for some but I think everyone can agree that the questions accurately represent what we learned in class this week and how well you studied your notes / homework / followed along in class lecture, discussion, and demonstrations.
After the quiz you could look over your friction lab handout; I anticipate having the friction lab probably Tuesday of next week.
We took a tiny bit of notes on centripetal (center-seeking) force and acceleration and diagrammed two situations where it is a significant factor, then what would happen if it was suddenly removed.
Finally, we got to see some cars with extra thought into air resistance, and looked at science stuff in the news.

Air resistance, practice w/s, Quiz Friday
Answers to today's worksheet: Practice picking variables and equations
Notes: Projectile motion and gravity
Quiz every Friday for the rest of the year; ~10minutes at beginning of class over week's material - a check for you and for me, plus a way to keep you up to date on studying.
This Friday's quiz: Inertia, Air Resistance, F = ma, and gravity (the basics - using the gravity equation to relate gravity in two places with different mass or distance between objects).

HMWK, bonus problem
Exam re-take tomorrow after school! Bring your equation card!
HMWK for Wed: Read 98-103, p. 103#1-7
Bonus problem: Bring to class tomorrow for maximum of +8 bonus points. Show work!
ISS altitude: 230 miles
(you can check your answer to (a) by taking W = m*g (from your notes))
HMWK for Wed: Read 98-103, p. 103#1-7
Bonus problem: Bring to class tomorrow for maximum of +8 bonus points. Show work!
ISS altitude: 230 miles
1.61 km = 1 mile
The Earth’s radius is about 6370 km.
The Earth’s mass is 5.97•1024 kg
An average person has a mass of 60kg. (our astronaut)
Use the Fg equation to find the force due to
gravity (their weight) on an astronaut:
a.At the Earth’s surface
b.On the International Space Station
(you can check your answer to (a) by taking W = m*g (from your notes))
Feel free to check your answer to (b) on the Internet.

Test makeups Tuesday, Oct. 15. HMWK due Wed
I will be offering test makeups in just over one week, after school, Tuesday the 15th. Test will be a different format, but the exact same concepts.
I know many of you did well and I congratulate you, but these concepts, if you failed to master them, will haunt you for most of this semester and I don't want to fail anyone.
Lab journals should be finally complete on Monday and you can see your exam results at the same time, specifically which questions you missed and why. If you plan to re-take, be ready to figure out what you did wrong and how to correct it!
HMWK: Read p. 81-86

ReviewWS Answers, Exam Friday
answers to review WS
here's an old review WS if you're interested.
Today we shot the monkey. And worked on the review WS and review problems from the text.
And re-worked the ranking task worksheets with different assumptions to help you with graphs.
Stuff to review: Chapter 3 sections 1&2: vocabulary and text, section review answers.
Chapter 3 review (around p. 90 in the book) - both the red and blue sections, but not anything dealing with forces or friction or inertia - that will be next unit.
worksheets from class and notes from class
What's on the test?
Here are the official objectives:Honors Physical – Earth Science Unit2 Motion Objectives
Problems involving the same.
Graphs - what does the graph show (match the motion to the graph)
Graphs - what does the slope tell us
Graphs - find position, acceleration, change in velocity, etc. by reading the graph and using its units.
...Oh and a few conversions (you can convert however you wish this time) and density from the first test that you should still be able to answer.

2. Analyze the velocities of two objects in terms of position
and time

relates to others (using slope and units)
Generally speaking,
Questions about velocity, speed, acceleration, etc.Problems involving the same.
