Gcast.com

GO to gcast and get an account. Create a podcast for me that explains the following:

Based upon your analysis of the cartoon, and the three situations, do you believe the values supported by the Cartoon physics mirror those found in real life for

a) constant motion
b) constant horizontal acceleration
c) constant vertical acceleration?

For each, explain why or why not. Think of the cartoonist's knowledge of science, the time of the week, the tools, etc.

I will be logging on to your gcast page to hear your explanation tonight.

Hand in your d-t, v-t, and a-t graph for each page. Place your movie file on the desktop of each computer before leaving tonight.

Thanks!

ONLINE PHYSICS CURRICULUM

Click here

Eek! The test was all over

Time for a reality check. Please go here and take the three formative quizzes. This means I am checking for your understanding, not giving a pop quiz. Your username and login were handed out in class.

Thanks!

Supercolliders

Those giant machines that smash protons and neutrons and electrons and antimatter mean something to the world of physics! They also develop side applications of technology (like the Internet) that we use daily. You took a look at this on your poster on Friday.

Now that you have done that, please answer the following in a 2-3 paragraph blog post...worth 15 points.

a) Do you think the benefits are worth the costs? Why or why not?
b) How does the work at the supercolliders tie into our understanding of radioactivity, or the weak forces of the nucleus?
c) When quarks and antimatter are generated, why do you suppose it is the strong force at work?
