Today we covered the final topic in chapter 11 - power. There is a webassign covering power, and also includes many practice problems for the entire chapter (some of them are challenging). It is a long assignment. Try as many as you need to feel confident with the material.
Go to the MSHS Home Page. On the right hand side of the page, under Quick Links you will find a link to AP Exam Registration. Follow the directions from there... Last day to register without a late penalty is March 7th!
Today we covered a whole bunch of topics - conservative vs. nonconservative forces, a general work energy equation, finding force from a potential energy graph, finding force from a potential energy function. New webassign is available to practice these concepts.
Today we talked about how the kinetic energy of a particle is affected by work. You should work on webassign 11.2.
Today we talked about the relationship between work and energy, and learned how to calculate the amount of work done by a constant force. There is a webassign with practice problems that you should work on!
Your test corrections are due on Tuesday 2/14. The retest will be on Wednesday 2/15 either before or after school (your choice). If you want to take the retest, you MUST have all webassigns done for this chapter (at least 75% completed for EACH assignment!) and you must have your test corrections completed.
Solutions to the exam are available in the google drive folder or here: Multiple Choice Free response Today we worked on the practice test for momentum and energy. Your test is tomorrow - 28 multiple choice questions and 2 free response questions. Look at the previous posts for materials.
Your lab (ballistic pendulum) is due next Monday 2/13). FRQ Scoring guidelines: 2004 Key 1991 Key MC Answers to Practice Test: 1. E 2. C 3. A 4. C 5. D 6. E 7. D 8. C 9. D 10. C 11. C 12. D 13. D 14. E 15. A 16. C 17. D 18. A 19. B 20. D 21. B 22. C 23. C 24. C 25. B Another snow day, which means that tomorrow (I am optimistic that we WILL have school tomorrow) we will review for the test and/or finish gathering data for the lab, and Thursday will be the Momentum and Energy test. If you have questions about this chapter, please email me so that I can make sure to include problems that will help you most in the review. Look at the 2/3/2017 blog post for sample problems and solutions, and also for solutions to the momentum quiz.
