Study Guide Day

Today everyone is working on a study guide for our first test. Period 1, yours is in Friday's post. Everyone else (honors classes), yours is below with answers.

Conceptual: Kinematics Study Guide

Today and Monday period 1 is working on the study guide for the kinematics test, which is Tuesday. Below are the study guide and the answers to the study guide. Also, don't forget to turn in Kinematics II!

Vectors

Today we talked about vectors and how to add them.

We also learned about vector components.

The front of the homework is the same for everyone:

But the back is different for Conceptual and Honors.

Conceptual: Projectile Motion (2D)

Today we talked very briefly about how to deal with an object moving in both the horizontal and vertical dimensions. The rest of the day was spent working on your last assignment of the semester (below).

Conceptual: Vector Components

Conceptual: Scalars and Vectors

Today we talked about the difference between vectors and scalars. We also added vectors graphically. Tomorrow we will add them with the Pythagorean Theorem.

Honors: Vector Components

Bellwork and notes, followed by homework.

Honors: Adding Vectors Graphically

I gave you some prepared notes on the graphical methods of adding vectors, but below are some overhead notes:




Homework: Concept-Development 3-2

Friday, 12/5: Final Review: Vectors and Projectile Motion

The review marathon continues! First we complete two bellwork problems, then students worked on their own on the review (which I will post later).

Bellwork: 9/15 - 9/18
