Meteorology Practice Quiz

Today:
meteorology worksheets turned in.
We made some predictions (our own forecast) of wind and temperatures using this map, then checked against actual data.
We did a self quiz (see below)
We prepared for tomorrow (or next class's) Specific Heat Lab.
Tomorrow we'll have a lab on Specific Heat; you'll try to figure out a way to compare two objects' specific heats:  Specific Heat describes how easy it is to heat up or cool down a certain material.

Next week we'll be having an exam over Meteorology!  Begin studying now.
Suggestions:
Vocabulary from the chapter.

chapter reviews, red and blue sections.  (see teacher's edition for answers!)

Self-quiz  (we looked at a few of these questions in class today)

Electricity and Magnetism Exam Tuesday!

Time to buckle down and study if you haven't already - chapter reviews (both blue and red sections) are highly recommended; for each chapter.
Also, you will need to use significant figures on this exam; I will review these rules with some examples in the context of electric power and Ohm's Law on Monday.

Topics for Exam:
Significant Figures
Electrostatics
Electric Current (Ohm's Law)
Electric Power
Magnetism: Fields and Interactions
Electricity and Magnetism
