I feel like I botched my attempt to culminate the projectiles and falling objects section, so I'll try again tomorrow.
x 09-10 Physics: September 2009 Archives
We finished motion in two dimensions and began focusing on projectiles and forces in two dimensions.
WebAssign appears to be functioning nominally now. I will begin putting assignments on WebAssign Tuesday, hopefully...
Students continued in their explorations of vector components and adding vectors.
Periods 5 and 6 were assigned one homework question.
Classes were cancelled on 9/22
Students took the Motion in 1 Dimension test.
Today was the students' last day to ask questions or review for their test tomorrow.
Review questions were assigned:
pp. 80 - 83
#57, 59, 61, 68, 75, 76, 78, 80, 109, 111
#112 could be completed for a bonus....
We continued to explore Projectile Motion and coordinate systems.
WebAssign should be up and running, but a student tells me that when they log in that it tells them to pay the money. I've turned the money in to our accountant, and I'll try to get that straightened out as soon as possible.
As long as the WebAssign system recognizes your name and password and THEN tells you to pay, it recognizes that you are in the system and I've got to realize how to pay.
Sorry for the inconvenience.
Today, we discussed the displacement of an object under the effects of constant acceleration. Students were given graph paper and asked to complete #31 on p. 71.
