Today, we'll do a lab in β©οΈ Pivot Interactives called "SHM vISLE: 5.5 Testing a mathematical model and assumptions" where we'll explore the mathematical model that we have derived for simple harmonic motion (SHM). This lab will particularly focus on lab skills which will be tested on the AP exam such as taking data, finding trends by making a graph, linearizing your graphs, and focusing on the assumptions which lead to systematic error.
Homework: QUIZ on gravitation, heavy rope, orbits Tuesday. β©οΈ Pivot SHM lab due Wednesday at 10pm.

Homework: QUIZ on gravitation, heavy rope, orbits next class Tuesday. β©οΈ Pivot SHM lab due Wednesday at 10pm. Watch the following two videos on simple harmonic oscillators with springs and pendulums. Alternatively, learn about simple harmonic oscillators using the available media of your choice - textbook, internet, etc.
QUIZ Today on gravitation, heavy rope, and orbits.
Today, we'll be reviewing many different aspects of oscillations including kinematic variables, forces, and energy in an oscillating system.
Then, in groups, apply what you know and solve problems with simple harmonic motion.
Required: Oscillation AP Problems (2009M2, 1990M3, 1999M2)
Homework: Oscillation problems due to βοΈ Google Classroom by Friday at 10pm.

Pd 3 - We'll pick topics for the Mechanics website.
Homework: QUIZ on simple harmonic motion on Monday, May 10th. Oscillation problems due to βοΈ Google Classroom by Friday at 10pm. Watch the following video I made on LC circuits (a topic that very occasionally shows up on the AP exam), and think about how this circuit relates to the oscillation we've studied in this unit:
