Physics
Bellwork:
1. Explain the difference between speed and velocity.
2. Using your knowledge of speed and motion, why is that when I throw a ball in the air while riding
on a moving bus, the ball lands back in my hand?
3. If a reflector was placed on the moon during the apollo moon landing, what distance are
astronomers from the moon if the laser is fired, reflected, and received in a time of 2.52 seconds.
Use the speed of light at 3x108 m/s.
Obejctives:
-Be able to graph the velocity of an object.
-Be able to use a distance vs. time graph to determine the velocity of an object.
-Be able to explain how an object can accelerate
Go over the math problems. Use the whiteboards. We will go over in class together.
Discuss the lab from yesterday. Could this lab be modified so that we could measure your acceleration? Describe the process.
Notes/discuss graphing the motion of an object.
-Ticker Tape Activity
HW: Prelab on graphing. This will be checked tomorrow before we begin the lab.
Physical Science A
Everyone should turn on their computer and log onto exam view.
Bellwork:
1. List the steps of the scientific method.
2. Describe a possible experiment that you could perform. Identify the control group, independent
variable, dependent variable, and controlled variables.
3. Why is the metric system an easier system of measurement to use?
4. Convert:
-85 km to meters
- 1550.4 cm to hm
-390 meters to millimeters
Hand out the list of material for the binder. Each student will have their binders checked while taking their quiz.
When finished with the quiz, pick up the vocabulary and standards for the next chapter.
Everyone will work on a running vocabulary list as we go through the chapters. The goal is that as your continue to add chapters in the your binder, you will have a running vocabulary section in the back to help you as we work through the trimester. You will be given a small amount of time tomorrow in class to work on vocabulary. The vocabulary is due on Thurday!
You will also be making a master formula sheet in the back of the binder as well.
