Vectors vs. scalars

average vs. instantaneous

Period 9 Mid Term Review

The idea of forces is on the exam... Most importantly that they are vectors and behave as such.
The total FORCE= Net Force=(Fnet)=ma
Or simply Fnet=ma

There are only to possibilities when it comes to Fnet:
They add up to zero (equilibrium)
Or they don't and the object accelerates.
Here are some sample questions:

Answers:
https://www.box.com/s/8j5bo5gdrwvsr2nwcvm2

You are permitted to bring one side 8.5x11 inch paper with hand written equation sheet you may include diagrams but no notes.

There is no curve!!!
It is a Pre determined standard.
80 correct = 100
70=90
60=80
50=70
48=68

Period 9

Projectile Notes


Projectile problems 30,37,53,90 use the previous info from class with launch angles given.
Please can Simone post the given information from class
dyi=from notes
Vo=from notes
Looking for the range.

These problems involve a lot of info so you MUST Use pukes to solve...
Separate into to problems one in the x and one in the y.
Time is the only factor that can be shared between the two. All the other variables are like your toothbrush not everyone get to use it.

Phresman the 12 Graphs of Physics

Here is a link to the Kongi Paper with the six graph blocks
http://media.konigi.com/tools/graphpaper/pdf/konigi-storyboard-gray.pdf
Pencast of Solutions
Period 7 discussion
Describe each motion. Think about the starting conditions and ending conditions for each motion
i.e. position & Velocity---> mathematically

Graph the following

On the first day of physics....
Graph an elf sitting in a tree

2nd Day of Physics
Graph an Elf ice skating

3rd Day of Physics
An elf skating backwards (Forward is the positive Direction)

4th Day of physics...
An elf on the roof dropping an iPad from rest (down is negative & ground is zero)

5th day of physics...
A physics elf driving in remote control car moving forward at constant speed and suddenly throwing it in then throwing it backward and reaching constant speed.

6th Day of Physics
A plate of stale physics cookies that have been thrown in the air and the crash on the ground... Be mindful of your starting and ending positions...

7th Day of Physics
An elf on a pogo stick....

8th Day of Physics...
An elf playing with a yo-yo, graph the yo-yo not the elf!,,


9th day of Physics...
A physics elf skydiving from a hot air balloon then pulling his parachute and safely returning to the ground.

10th day of physics...
A day off!

11th Day of physics...
A basketball released from the bottom of mainlands pool.
Be sure to label the top and bottom of the pool.

AP 12 Days of Physics

You can discuss. Problems here. Due after break.

Not as easy as pie

Mr. Crane, so for our final graph you just want us to plot our Period
and square roots of Lengths?
Yes
Do you want us to draw the BLOF or the lines leading up to the x and y axis?
Yes

AP Physics B Ch.4 Problems Sets

Place Questions about problems here.
  • be sure to include the number of the problem,
  • State the problem the unknowns and knowns.   Create a link to a picture.
  •  This will provide outside of the classroom to provide help  and allow others including myself to plan and prepare discussions for class. (differentiated instruction)
I have provided a link to what we worked on in class.
Asteroid and Space Tug
Ex.
  •        2 objects are tied together an pull on one another in deep space.  
  •      They both accelerate toward one another
    •  but because they are different masses they accelerate at different rates
  • where do the meet?  what is their final position?
  • How long does it take for this to occur
Picture 
Application of Idea
Solution:
Bulleted list of steps for solving or some other representation or link for explaining the solution.


Period 9 GRAPHICAL ANALYSIS SUMMARY

Ok.  We have had the discussion.  Generated graphs and equations.  Interpreted slopes and intercepts.
Now you need to summarize and look for the key concepts.
Use this  review.


  •  Please list them here to receive blog points. 
  • Ask questions= Blog Points
  • Answer Question = Blog points

Freshman Physics not as easy as pie

Post ideas questions here.

Do not draw your BLOF. JUST THE POINTS

Tracker APPB

Link for tracker is posted on twitter:
AP and anyone else interested in some extra credit.
Due Monday
Write steps on how to use tracker:
Objective:
  1. Import a video of a simple exhibiting simple motion.
  2. use tracker to autotrack the potion of the object
    1. create a graph of this in tracker
  3. email me the graph by Monday

Friday, November 16, 2012

APPB:FBD:
  • Copy all diagrams into your notebook. 
  • Draw the FBD for all situations.
  • Discuss on the blog.
  • Also I crated a Google+ Hangout link on the assignment so you can work together by use of a microphone or webcam
