Hey Ya'll.

Freshman Physics... Look over the "practice problems" worksheet Mr. Kolb gave out at the end of class today.  Do your best to complete it.  Remember that all retakes and make-ups must be completed by the latest Tuesday January 24th.  Your midterm will be on Monday January 30th.

AP... Linksssssssss! Magnetism Presentation (*.pdf), Magnetism Practice Problems, Magnet and Compass Simulation

The following is a video from Khan Academy talking about how we understand centripetal acceleration. Remember: Acceleration is a Change in Velocity. Velocity has magnitude and direction.

The following is a video we watched in class. It is important to understand why these demonstrations happen:

The solution to the classwork can be found here.

Some questions you should keep in mind are as follows:

What is the angular velocity of the ladybug?

What is the Linear / Tangential Velocity of the ladybug?

What is the acceleration of the ladybug?

You should also read this handout by clicking here. Pay close attention to the "Real-Life Applications" section.
