Vectors

Honors Physics - Vector resolution and combining non-perpendicular vectors was the focus of the day, even though C Block was lost to peer mentor training. C block will catch up, lecture-wise on Monday. Remember to read tomorrow's lab this evening, so that you'll be ready to go when class starts. The first truly empirical method for determining the value of "g" was using an inclined plane and this lab will mimic that experience. It will also allow some practice with vector resolution.

Physics - we begin working with vectors tomorrow by investigating how vectors can be combined graphically. As a tool, vectors are very valuable for the analysis of physical phenomena and we will make extensive use of them during the course.

Physical Science - your daily objectives will be returned tomorrow so that you have them on hand as a study tool for Monday's exam. A note on these - some people were missing a number of days and some people didn't provide any answers. The daily objective expectations were outlined on the first day of class and have been reiterated several times since then. Most people did a good job! The one bit of criticism I would offer is to add detail to your answers so that the answers are thorough. Also, re-read your answers to see if they (a)make sense and (b) answer the question being asked. The daily objectives and answers will be collected periodically during the year, so use this as an opportunity to collect points.
