Mon-Day 1
Physics - I just posted a MAMMOTH multiple choice DETAILED answer key to our projectile motion multiple choice questions at the end of the packet. See Blackboard.
Do the questions first, timed. Check your answers versus my answer key.
Check that you solved the problems efficiently, and that you used test-taking skills, drawings, and logic.
For the written-response exam on Wednesday, I will post the remaining written-response answers to our projectile motion packet questions.
Today, we finished up the data analysis and questions to the vertical projectile motion/tennis ball lab.
Note how important that visualization, labeling, and drawing pictures are to properly solving a physics problem. Most of the "hard work" of physics is just drawing and labeling what is going on in the question. After that, you are just plugging in numbers for variables.
:)
We began our "projectile launched at an angle lab" by throwing baseballs and gathering the time of flight as well as horizontal distance/range data.
Study hard for the multiple choice exam tomorrow; email me if you are confused, or better yet, come to extra help in Room 306 at 8AM tomorrow so that we can do some problems.

AP Chem- we finished a gas and solution stoichiometry combined problem.
We then derived two permutations of the ideal gas law with which we can quickly solve for the molar mass of a gas from its density at a given temperature, pressure, and volume.
