  1. Mr. Crane, didn't you give out this packet in class or is this one different?

  2. T-mid is the time between your two points. So for number one is would be 0.5 seconds.

  3. Will you be in at lunch on Monday if we need help?

  4. What is your question? Post it. We have done all of these thing in previous labs. Someone may have the same question.

  5. For question 14, wouldn't the graph change due to squaring it?

    1. See lab "not as easy as Pi". And review what to so when you do not have a linear function.

  6. For question 13, how do I get 🔺t and 🔺x?
    For question 14, how do I get time^2?

  7. I'm not sure if im on the right track for #11, but after comparing the slopes i got
    that the wheel's velocity (slope) was the largest at t=3 seconds. I drew the tangeant for that and picked 2 other points and then found the slope of those two points. I got 40 cm/s

  8. Also, for number 13, are we only supposed to graph the original position vs. time or the velocity and change in x and y too?

  9. For #13, I am confused because it says it is a velocity vs. time graph, but the velocity doesn't exactly match up with a certain time. It only matches with t(mid). Should we be graphing velocity vs. t(mid)?

  10. Also, the wording of number 12 confuses me

  11. And like Madison and Christina, i Don't know what to do for number 13 and 14

  12. Did you want us to have 15-19 finished for class today? You said if we do, then it will be on the blog. Just making sure you did not assign it.

  13. Could you post a few scenarios and questions that we would need to apply the equations we went over in class today? I'm confused as to when to use the plain y=mx+b or the equation that involves p-naught and half of the acceleration, etc.

  14. We will do an example in class. The application of the equations is the next thing we are doing and is not the focus of the test.
