2-journal entry day (plus the warm-up...so 3 entries)--all done individually
#1: Lab-based entry--take the worksheet, cut in half and tape into your journal. Collect data and complete questions as directed. #2: Notes-based entry--Look at/take notes on rotational kinetic energy, using the following sources: PowerPoint Notes HyperPhysics website PhysLAB website In your journal, answer the 4 questions at the end of the PhysLAB website (the ones about Einstein and his bike). |
Thursday, Feb. 9

go over Rotational Kinetic Energy concepts as a class
Practice problems HW reminder: have your packet of IB questions mostly done by tomorrow--we'll go over a few. The packet will be collected on Monday. HW Reminder: Don't forget about your WA--due Monday, but try most of the problems by tomorrow. |
