Lab: M&M Decay and Half-life

Nuclear Physics

Today and tomorrow we will be taking notes on sections 1-5 of chapter 39. Concept Development 39-1 is also due at the end of the period tomorrow.

Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle

Lab: Spectra of Gases

We are completing this lab today and tomorrow. Sorry sixth period; because of the assembly, you will not be able to finish. You will be excused.

Electron Waves and Atom Energy Levels

Quanta and Photons

The Atom and the Quantum

Benjamin Franklin's Big Mistake

Remember when we were talking about current and the fact that the sign convention is backwards because Ben Franklin made a 50/50 choice and got it wrong? This was just posted by xkcd.com; awesomeness.
Have a great spring break!

Compound Circuits

On Wednesday's bellwork we went over how to handle a compound circuit, then spent the rest of Wednesday and Thursday practicing on Concept-Development 35-2. This is due the day we are back from Spring Break.

Parallel Circuits

Today we worked through the back of Concept-Development 35-1 while discussing parallel circuits. You should have finished the front of this worksheet last night, so this was due at the end of the period.

Bellwork 3/30 - 4/6

Series Circuits

Today we talked about series circuits and applied what we had learned on the front side of Concept-Development 35-1. Please finish this front side by tomorrow.

Electric Power

We used the last 15-20 minutes of class to work on Conceptual Development 34-2; if you didn't finish it in class, it is homework.

Concept-Development 34-1

On 4/1 and 4/2 there is AIMS testing in the mornings, so we have periods 1, 3, and 5 on Wednesday and 2, 4, and 6 on Thursday. During these days you will complete the worksheet Concept-Development 34-1, which covers voltage, current, resistance, and Ohm's Law. This is due the same day at the end of the period.
