Hello my fellow classmates! It's me Amy scribing again. In today's class, we went over the problems in the green textbook that was assigned to us on Friday. The page number is 172 for those who missed the chance to do those questions. Questions 1-5 were assigned for us as homework and we had gonve over the first two in class today. The other 3 were to be handed in at the end of today's class. I'm assuming those are for marks so hurry up and hand them in before Ms. Kozoriz returns the assignments back to the class! I would give out the answers for question 1 and 2 but sadly they are on the same paper with the 3 other questions that are to be handed in. In other words, I don't have them with me :\. Sorry!!!
So for half of the class, we had worked on those problems. Afterwards, we were given 4 hand-outs from Ms. Kozoriz!!! Those hand-outs included "Concept-Development Practice Page (Chapter 12: Universal Gravitation)," "Chapter 11: Gravitational Intructions," "Issues in Space Exploration: Benefits," and "Chapter 8 Study Guide." Please see Ms. Kozoriz if you missed/don't have any of these hand-outs!!!
We had went over the "Concept-Development Practice Page (Chapter 12: Universal Gravitation)" and "Chapter 11: Gravitational Instructions" worksheet in class.
Here are the answers and what the worksheets look like:
Concept-Development Practice Page (Chapter 12: Univeral Gravitation)
--Check out the cool experiment in question 3!! You'll be amazed, guaranteed :D.
Chapter 11: Gravitational Instructions (Side 1)
Chapter 11: Gravitational Instructions (Side 2)
If you're wondering what "Fold" means, it means the solved equation equals to the "old force." The old force is the force we use to calculate our "Fnew" ("new force") for what we're trying to find. This correlates to having constants (number in front of "Fold") or no constant at all to determine the new force out of Newton's Universal Law of Gravitation equation. For example, if there is "4Fold" means 4 times the "old force." By increasing the "old force" 4 times, a new force ("Fnew") is developed where the it is equivalent to 4 times the "old force." Please see me if you don't understand the concept :).
Along with the other two hand-outs, we were to read the "Issues in Space Exploration: Benefits" package and finish the first 3 pages of the "Chapter 8 Study Guide."
There was not much work to do in class today. So for those who were absent, you guys didn't miss much. That concludes the lession in today's class. If anyone has a question about the hand-outs, you can come see me about any questions and see Ms. Kozoriz for the ones that you didn't pick up. As for a heads up in tomorrow's class, you guys will be receiving an additional 2 new hand-outs called "Transparency 7-2" and "Universal Law of Gravitation." Thanks for reading my post :)!!!
