Physics 9-10-09 Free Fall
PHYSICS – So how do you like free fall? Here’s the lecture from Thursday on acceleration due to gravity. Hey what’s your reaction time? And did you figure out why you can’t catch the dollar bill? Write it up as a kind of mini-lab report in your lab book. Put your data in a table and be sure and show all your calculations/work. Have a great extra long weekend!

Okay…hopefully this will come up as my comment with P5 in my name. I actually had to set my alarm so I wouldn’t sleep through midnight and forget to do this.

I watched the lecture from Thursday when I was not there, and I am pretty sure I understand free fall. I was wondering if there was going to be a help session this next week before the test?

Do we have to answer any questions for the reaction time lab?

Nope, not this time. Just make sure you answer the thing about not ever being able to catch a dollar bill and why. and make sure you show all your calculations.

Hey, Ms. Skinner!
Just wondering, but you want our work under Observations, right? Not on the back of the page because you don’t grade that part, right?

RC – yes, put all your calculations under “Observations”. I’d probably do it under the data table, or something like that.
