Week of 9-8

This week is all about motion - we finished notes on relative motion Monday (see older link) and worked some practice problems involving relating motion of two objects to one another.
Tuesday we did graph analysis and motion maps in our notes - copy from a peer if you missed it - they don't translate to the computer well.

Wednesday we are graphing the (fake) data from our motion maps yesterday - showing what acceleration looks like on both a position - time graph and a velocity - time graph, and showing how the slope and its units from each graph relate to what is happening to the object.

We also did a short activity with a wheel and axle, and described its motion with a graph sketch and a motion map, and reviewed the density topic.

Thursday we worked on this worksheet and watched a video clip on acceleration and what it means


Friday we will have a quiz over material from this unit; graphs, motion maps, and relationships involving position, speed, displacement, velocity, and acceleration.


HMWK:
Read p. 76-80, p.80#1-7  Due Thursday
Ranking Task W/S Page 1 AND Page 2 (handed out in class Wed) Due Friday - be sure to show some calculation or explanation!

Exam on Measurement, Density, and basic Motion will likely be next Wednesday
