First this class Mrs D told us how to do a right conclusion.
You need Distance, time and speed in your conclusion.
Your errors must be something that affects your data.
Mention +, - or no correlation in your conclusion.
After that Mrs D lectured us on Acceleration.
Acceleration is not speeding up. It is the change in velocity. (speed increasing, decreasing and changing direction.)
Increasing acceleration is positive acceleration while deceleration is negative acceleration.
An example of changing direction in acceleration is circular motion. Examples of circular motion is a ferris wheel or a satellite.
A geosynconised satellite is a satellite that is always above one point on what it is rotating about.
Math in acceleration.
m/s/s is the unit for acceleration.
The Formula for speed is Final speed - Initial speed/Time
a sample calculation of working out acceleration is...
Formula: F - S / T = a Plug: 10m - 0m / 10s Chug: 1m/1s/1s You can not have m/s/m
The Next Scribe Poster is !?@# Cip
James - great!!! I loved the colors and how you explained every thing very well, BUT...
ReplyDeletethe formula for ACCELERATION is final speed - initial speed/time... and you could have put the formula/plug/chug in different rows and made the "next scribe" bigger. You could also have done the titles, for example "Math in Acceleration" bigger.
But great job!
Great blog!
ReplyDeleteI found the blog very interesting but there were a few errors.
You spelled geosynconised wrong it is really Geosynchronous. Also that part doesn't really fit in the blog you could leave it out or explain it more. If you want to explain it more here is a link http://scienceworld.wolfram.com/physics/GeosynchronousOrbit.html
yes it is a wolfram site.
Also you should add the other units for acceleration.
You also forgot to put =a in your original formula for acceleration.
Additionally when you were talking about what acceleration was you should have not used a comma instead of the period or ( )
Your sample calculation at the end didn't make sense because you said s/t=a ???? it looks like a half speed half acceleration formula could you please clarify.
All in all not fabulous but it was good despite the errors.
Where is s/t=a? I did not write that any where.
ReplyDeleteMy mistake you didn't write it anywhere but the calculation formula is still wrong becase according to you it is F - S / T = a.
ReplyDeleteJames - could you please change my name to Ms. D., not Mrs. D.....that's my mom! Thanks a bunch and have a fab day :)
