For those doing the Spinmeister activity

Here is a link ( not a live link so you will have to paste it into your browser) for a picture and a very brief discussion of the Spinmeister

Mathematical Review Package

See message of Sunday June 1

Great Adventure Labs

Labs are due Monday June 2 to get one full letter, ten extra points, above the lab's normal grade.
Due by by June 9 to get any credit

You do not have to do activity 2 Conscious Commuting

Honors and Mathematical Thermo Assignment notes sample cycle

The sample cycle problem in the Thermo notes is now an assignment, due Monday June 2.

For the sample cycle problem in the notes on thermo use the following:

for work done in an isothermal process
Work done by gas = PinitialV initial x ln (Vfinal/Vinitial)
so work done by gas from D to A = -2.64 x10^7 Joules

and work done by gas from B to C = +1.33 x10^8 Joules

Plug these in and you should be able to do the rest

Period 2 Great Adventure

Apparently Period 2 groups 3 , 4, and 6 feel no need to have the activity sheets for Great Adventure, since they were laying in 506 at the end of period 2. This is fine by me . However, unless I hear a very good explanation you will all receive zero for the labs and extra credit.

Mathematical Labs

Since there was more than one 8 th period in folder last week I will accept that the refraction labs marked 5/21 can have been turned in on 5/19. I will adjust your marks accordingly. Turn your lab back in if it was marked late incorrectly.

Even more about Wednesday

All of you, read through the introductory material in the packet about force, acceleration, etc.

Those not going: First get packet from door to 506. One activity ( your choice of the 3 in the packet) is required, 2nd can replace worst lab, 3rd can get you up to 15 pts extra credit.
Period 2 go to room 531
Period 4 room 534
Period 6 532
Period 7 534
Period 8 534

Those going: same deal as those not i.e. one activity ( your choice of the ones in your group packet ) is required, 2nd can replace worst lab, 3rd can get you up to 15 pts extra credit.
You'll get packets including angle and acceleration devices on the bus. Read through the material so you'll know what and how to measure for each activity on each ride. Bring pens and index cards for data taking.

6th period groups:

#1 Katie, Ann, Rijul
#2 Peter, Parsa, Nicole
#3 Alex, Rebecca, Isha ( nice concert tonight ladies), Anita
#4 Garrett, dan, Ryan, Kuba
#4 Andrew, Jane, Sydney

8th period groups
#1 Marissa, Danielle, Kristen, and Alex, ( boy that's some group)
#2 Ashley, Ryan, Tara

#4 Walker, Ray ( outstanding concert tonight you two) , Nick

More Urgent about Wednesday

More coming so check later

More coming I am taking a break

ALL STUDENTS URGENT WEDNESDAY 5/28

1) Everyone reports to 1st period class

2) Those not attending Great Adventure unless you teacher has told you otherwise, follow your schedule EXCEPT physics class. The room number you go to for physics may be announced or will be posted on the door to 506.

3) Those attending: go to 1st period, wait for the announcement. Then board your bus as follows:

Bus #6 All second period plus Travis, Amanda, Tucker and Olivia

Bus # 7 All remaining 4 period, all 6th period, all 8th period

4) Rules

You MUST be on your same ASSIGNED bus to and from Great Adventure

Be back on bus NO LATER than 2:45 or Saturday detentions

Be safe

Do assigned rides in chosen groups

Always travel with at least one buddy

Any trouble find a Ridge teacher or nurse at the fountain

park food in the locker (get your hand stamped before you pass through gate)

keep your kits

Here is what you have been clamoring for

Mathematical and Honors Fluids and Schedule

Here is a link to fluids problems. Problems 1,6 and 8 are due on Wednesday 5/28 for honors and mathematical classes . Try any others, you'll get 10 points extra credit for any others done right. You must show complete work though.

FluidsProbSh-HCPM-08.doc

Here is the Mathematical Schedule for Unit 15

CPMUnit15FluidThermo-08.doc

Honors and Mathematical Thermo Notes

[ Schedule for mathematical class will be up by 5 PM.]Here is the link to the thermo notes. Read them all by Thursday morning but emphasize those parts concerned with how heat added or removed, internal energy , and work on or by the fluid are related.

NotesonThermoR4.doc

Honors and Mathematical Fluids Assignment

Here is the link for the fluids notes. Read about pressure, and buoyancy force, and get a feel for Bernoulli's principle: Work done by pressure differences changes potential and kinetic energy of the fluid.

Important Deadlines

1) Honors and mathematical: Refraction Lab due today, late tomorrow (Tuesday); DOA Wednesday.

Lab report should:

 state purpose e.g verify ratio between sines of angles is near constant because it is = to ratio of speeds and therefore inverse ratio of indexes (indices is the correct plural) of refraction and to find index for glass.

Procedure: describe what you did, how did you get the lines, what angles did you measure

Error Analysis: not sighting lines properly, mis-measuring angles ( very common on many of the labs I checked)

Conclusion : was ratio of sines constant, what was resulting n for glass assuming  N air =1

2) AP Exam Perp homework: get them in to me by Wednesday morning the latest, label which are late and which were done by 5/12. You are on your honor.

3) All students project proposals due by class time Wednesday
