Honors Review Packets and Book

Remember to bring your books and Review packets in.

All Students: Stuff on Ridge Computers

Just a reminder, if you any files on the school servers or hard drives you want to save, you must mail them to your home computers or save them to your personal portable memory devices pronto. Your files will be cleaned out over the summer.

Guaranteed A for AP students

I thought that might work. Make sure you turn in all the AP test materials and your books tomorrow. No this won't guarantee you an A, but it may help you avoid a D.

Important Honors Thermo notes

Here are some additional notes on thermo you should review for the final and give the sample a cycle a try. I will post the answers on Friday.

Focal Length for Spherical Mirror

As promised, here is a demonstration that the focal length = 1/2 radius of a spherical mirror.

Please look it over, it is simple.

Here is the link to the review packet for this semester. This inlcudes you last homework assignemnts which will count for a total of six. They are to be done on clean sheets of paper and turned in when due. When you do the work make notes etc on the packets so you will have them to use at home.Keep the packets they are yours to keep and study from.

Great Adventure Data

There is some information on speeds and heights for the Great Adventure Rides available at http://www.sixflags.com/greatAdventure/rides/AllRides.aspx. Pick a ride and hit learn more to see if this has what you need.

Relativity proof

For those of you who want to see a quick way of demonstrating that equations 7 and 8 are equivalent, using the transforms developed up to that point in the notes, see this link:

Great Adventure Labs

Some Batman Activity packages handed out to students skip page A50. If you need a page A50, come see me.

AP Relativity Assignment for Monday AM

No, the quarter is not over. Your assignment, due for class Monday, is to demonstrate that if equation 7 is true [as it is if x , y and z are the coordinates of an expanding flash of light from a bulb at the origin] then equation 8 is true. Do this by substituting the transform equations for t', x', y' , and z' from page 10 in equation 8 and seeing what you get.

Happy algebra.

Thermo Test Corrections Honors Sect 1

My Honors Section 1(period 3) will have an opportunity to correct their last thermo tests on Monday night. You must ask for your tests back Monday and turn it in Tuesday with COMPLETE answers, with work where appropriate on a clean sheet(s). The corrections will be allowed to replace your orignal test grade to a large ( not complete) degree.

You must be ready to demonstrate that the work turned in is your own and you understand what you did to receive any credit for these corrections.
