Today, we'll spend the day doing problem solving.
Homework: Work on your problems. QUIZ on free body diagrams and basic Newton's 2nd Law next class - Tuesday, October 28th!
Optional Extra Practice:
📖textbook - chapter 4: #17, 24, 25, 34, 66. (optional: # 15, 19, 20, 22)
all of FYP: Newton's Laws of Motion (SOLUTIONS).
QUIZ on free body diagrams and basic Newton's 2nd Law TODAY!
Today, we'll learn about a class of problems called "elevator problems." You'll learn that a bathroom scale does not really measure your weight in all situations.
Then, do Elevator Problems #1-5. (skip #1b) (SOLUTIONS). Watch the following videos which may be useful in understanding elevator problems if you need clarification. These types of problems are easy to solve using the techniques that we've already been using including drawing free body diagrams and writing ΣF statements. Remember, a bathroom scale will read your "apparent weight" or the NORMAL force!
If we finish early, we'll start the problems from the next post.
