Unit 5 - Forces in Equilibrium

Best activity?

Even though it wasn't a major activity i thought the hover craft in class was cool.  I would have so much fun riding one of those in a large open spaces with ramps and stuff.

Challenging?

This was a very challenging unit for me.  I didn't really understand the relationship between SOHCAHTOA and the values of certain things in the equations.



Main Ideas?

SOHCAHTOA

Newtons First LAw

Newtons Thirds LAw 

UNit 4 - Projectiles

Best activity?
The best activity from this unit was the rocket lab on lower field.  It is fun because it brings me back to my childhood, while allowing me to learn about projectiles something I have played with forever but didnt understand the science behind it. 

Challenging?

The most challenging was understanding how to approach the vertical and horizontal problems.  The equations were a bit confusing but i was able to study enough to remember them. 

Main Ideas?

Displacement -
Horizontal equation
Vertical equation
