HP Cycle 11

🟢❗ 6: W 11/4, 🔵 8: M 11/9 free body diagrams

Pd 6 quiz on Newton's First Law

Today, we'll first learn about how to draw free body diagrams in order to represent the external forces on an object/system. First read the PowerPoint below. Then watch the video below. Then practice on Free Body Diagrams Worksheet.

Presentation: Free Body Diagrams Powerpoint

Handout: Free Body Diagrams Worksheet

Homework: Draw free body diagrams for the objects on Free Body Diagrams Worksheet.

🟩 6: M 11/9 , 🟦 8: T 11/10 ➕ Positive Physics free body diagrams

Today, we'll work on the following sections ➕ Positive Physics unit 5: introductions to forces:

• free-body diagram drawing 1

• free-body diagram drawing 2

• free-body diagram analysis 1

• free-body diagram analysis 2

Note: The following abbreviations are used in ➕ Positive Physics:

• W - weight, aka force of gravity

• N - normal force

• Th - thrust

• D - drag, aka force of air friction

• A - applied force

Homework: Finish ➕ Positive Physics unit 5 problems by Wednesday at 10pm. Only completion score will count, so you can continue to try if you get it wrong the first time. Try to finish these problems early in case you run into technical difficulty. No late credit.

💚 6: W* 11/11, 💙 8: W* 11/11 Newton's Second Law

Today we'll review the video from homework last night on Newton's Second Law through interactive lecture. We'll learn how to use our free-body diagrams to solve problems using Newton's Second Law.

In addition, we'll talk about the results of the lab and learn about what the accepted value is for our constant.
