Today in class we started simple machines, work and power! Yey a new unit!

We took notes on google docs. here are the links:

Julia,Viktor, and Noam were our laptop-note takers for the day.

We learned the formulas and simple definitions of these things.

The formula for work is W=Fd be sure to make the W capital because the lower case one s for weight.

For homework we had a worksheet with work & power math problems.

For example one problem looked like this: How much work is done to move a box if the force applied to that box is 65.7 N and it is moved a distance of 12.1 m?

Formula=W=Fd

Plug=65.7N x 12.1 m

Chug=794.97J

Homework for tomorrow is to finish math problems sheet.

THE NEXT SCRIBE ISS IVA!!!!!

Reflection Post (Reza)

I think that the Muddiest point in blogging was when we had to make a major comment. This troubled me because it was very hard to make link to a video that had to do with the topic. My view on the subject is that it was a good way of helping the people who got sick. It was very good how people posted the homework. In conclusion I believe we should do this again for the next quarter
