There are a lot of questions about how the bullseye lab was graded, and why the grades were so low. Take a look at the original lab requirements, then use the grading rubric to score your lab report. If you feel that I cheated you out of points, we can look at your lab and the rubric together and adjust your points accordingly. Here are two labs that were well done: Lab 1 and Lab 2.

Today we worked on UCM problems on a worksheet. Problems #1-11 (front side of the worksheet) are due tomorrow. Solutions for the worksheet are available in google drive. For those of you who like to read along in the book this material is covered in chapter 4 p. 107-112.
Today we learned about uniform circular motion. We learned how to find the "delta v" (change in velocity). We also learned about period, frequency, angular velocity, etc.
Friday and Monday are work days. Work on the webassign problems to practice projectile motion and relative motion!
Today we talked about relative velocity. This is section 4.4 (p. 103-107) in your book. Here is a good video from A Plus Physics that covers relative velocity.
We spent today completing the bulls eye lab data collection and challenge problem. Remember, your lab writeup is due on Friday, and late work will incur a 10% penalty.
Today you wrote a procedure and gathered data to allow you to predict where a marble will land when it rolls off of the lab table. The lab report is due Friday 10/20. There will be a 10% penalty for labs that are handed in late.
Today we worked through several example problems together. Solutions to all of the examples are available in google drive.
Video solution for problems #29 and #31 from the Cutnell Physics book (Chapter 3). Monday we did an online projectile motion simulation, and yesterday we talked about projectile motion and went through several examples. We will continue to work on examples together in class on Wednesday.
Today was a work day to practice resolving vectors into components, and adding vectors.

REMINDERs:Chapter 2 test retake is Monday 10/15. You can take the retest either before school or after school, but you must complete all of the Chapter 2 homework (75% completion on each assignment) to be eligible for a retake!
