Today is 01/22/10 and the first class since the break.
Today we learned to make a line graph that will correctly show acceleration. To do this you make the x-axis time and the y-axis speed. We Also learned to make a best fit line or curve. to do so you draw a line or curve through the graph that follows the general direction of the points on the graph. For the class, Ms.D assigned three people to take notes on the computers. the three people were
Noam : Notes A
Reza : notes B
Viktor : notes C
Today in science we also started a new unit, Physics.
for this unit our vocab words are
Force
Newton
Net Force
Unbalanced Forces
Balanced Forces
Friction
Static Friction
Sliding Friction
Rolling Friction
Fluid Friction
Gravity
Mass
Free Fall
Air Resistance
Terminal Velocity
Projectile
Inertia
Momentum
Law of Conservation of Momentum
Satellite
Centripetal Force
Today's science homework was to graph the data on the sheet you were given only for the ping pong ball. For the graph you should
-make a line graph
-include the best fit curve
-circle outliers
-label the X and Y axis
-label the title
and write a paragraph including acceleration, deceleration, ping pong ball, time, speed, correlation and best fit curve. This paragraph should include one sentence of support that includes outliers.
