Ap Summer assignment #1 Ch.2 Problem Set
This is paramount to your success. If you can not find time to do this you really do not want to be in Physics B. I can. Not stress this enough. It is like working out for you to reap any benefit you must push yourself as hard as possible. It will be difficult at times but that's when you know it's working!
You may and should discuss questions you have here on the blog. Be sure to include the question # and the issue you are having.
Assignment details.
- All problems should be done in a composition notebook with the first 5 pages left blank for T.O.C.
- Each entry work date should be note with start and end times with your name in the upper right hand corner---->. First initial and last name is acceptable.
- Answers are to be recorded on google form.
- You Should be devoting a minimum of 2 hours a week to this or 5 problems a day. If you work for 2 hrs and get all the problems done Great.

Waves Sound & Light
- Objectives
- After studying the material of this chapter, you should be able to:
- State the conditions necessary for resonance. Give examples of instances where resonance is a) beneficial and b) destructive. Explain how damped harmonic motion can be achieved to prevent destructive resonance.
- Distinguish between a longitudinal wave and a transverse wave and give examples of each type of wave.
- Calculate the speed of longitudinal waves through liquids and solids and the speed of transverse waves in ropes and strings.
- Calculate the energy transmitted by a wave, the power of a wave and the intensity of a wave, across a unit area A.
- Describe wave reflection from a barrier, refraction as the wave travels from one medium into another, constructive and destructive interference as waves overlap, and diffraction of waves as they pass around an obstacle.
- Explain how a standing wave can be produced in a string or rope and calculate the harmonic frequencies needed to produce standing waves in string instruments.

Newton's Laws Tests
- You may use your notes to complete the test it should be done in one attempt.
- You may discuss concepts but not questions on the tests.
- Ex. How do you do # 3? (Bad)
- Ex. What are the units of mass and weight? ( good)
- Click on the link below to start.
- Note in the last problem it should read moon's gravity is 1/6 that of Earth.
